Are Panic And Anxiety Symptoms Side Effects Of TDap Vaccine?
My son got the TDap vaccine for a cut on his hand. Now he has developed severe OCD anxiety / panic symptoms and they are getting more and more extreme. He has never had these symptoms before. Is there something that can counter this reaction or a test to confirm that this is the cause.

Welcome to HCM
Tdap vaccine -
In this vaccine the component 'P' that is pertussis is very rarely associated with seizure activity but not with OCD/anxiety/panic disorder.
So my advice is to visit nearby neurologist and psychiatrist for further evaluation of above mentioned problem.
Thank you
Regards
