The day after his 2nd dose of the flue shot vaccine, patient experienced similar seizure like activity as he did after his first dose 2 months prior. This time, however, he was throwing his head back with more force, he was sticking his tongue out (new compared to last time), eyes would roll back and eyelids flutter. He would have his head tipped back so far, it would cause him to lose his balance. These episodes lasted for a few seconds, and were happened much more frequently than they did the first time, so we decided to go to the ER.

05/18/2025: CT scan and step test. Both came back clear. ER doctor stated that this is not a fluke, not a chosen behavior, and they suggest getting further testing done at another Hospital (patient had an EEG performed there on 12/19/2024 due to having seizure like episodes following the first dose of flue shot- came back clear). I have called them again, with no response, so I have left a voicemail. There has been no response. We also informed our pediatrician.
