According to Barcelona Reporter, A cheerleader “Desiree Jennings” gets Dystonia from Flu Shot Vaccine. Further it says that a cheerleader for the NFL Washington Redskins, Desiree Jennings, is suffering from Dystonia, due to swine flu she got earlier.
Dystonia is a neurological condition in which muscles are affected, causing twisting, abnormal postures and repetitive movements. The disorder can be inherited or caused by infection, a reaction to drugs, physical trauma, poisoning, or can be birth-related.
Just before getting a seasonal flu shot in August, Desiree’s health was fine, but then 10 days afterward she contracted flu-like symptoms. Things only got worse from there, and she was put in the hospital for seizures on two occasions before being diagnosed with Dystonia. Doctors have only speculated that the flu shot was the cause.
