Vaccine Neurological Damage?

Hello-

I am desperately seeking any information on possible neurological vaccine reactions that may be linked to motor neuron diseases or immune disorders. I had a HepB vaccine (only one shot in series, did not complete) in Nov2010 and one week later, I began experiencing odd neurological symptoms. I have had several blood tests with nothing too far from normal...minus a borderline CPK test(s) and a high IgE. I have also had three EMG/NVC studies performed by thee different neurologists. The first EMG/NVC came back with borderline positive sharp waves (DEC 2010). Since then I have had two follow up EMG/NVC in March & April 2011 with everything "normal". In fact the two follow up tests did not find any positive waves which was indicated from the first test.

I am not sure where to turn because I have constant bi-lateral fasiculations in my calves and spontaneous muscle spasms through out my body...some of which will last for hours. The neurologists are stumped and so are the other doctors I have seen. Has anyone in the forum ever read or heard of the HepB vaccine causing MND symptoms or other immune disorders?

I am a male, 30 years old with no history of MND in my family. I have no weakness or atrophy to date, just twitches, some joint discomfort, and odd sensation of "no feeling" in the tip of one of my fingers along with a buzzing or ringing sound in my ears.

Any and all help/information would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.
