go to the ER. (NOt an emergency, just get him to a doctor quicker than a week from now! It also might be a reaction to the shots! And may just go away!) Just check him out!

The shot contains an inactive virus which means it's not supposed to give them the actual illness. Did they give you a sheet when he got his shot? Usually they should give you a fact sheet that lists exactly what's in the shot, what each thing does, any side effects, and whether the shot contains a live or inactive virus. I think you should take him to the ER, that way it can be seen while he still has it, who knows, it may be gone tomorrow. Plus a lot of places will be closed tomorrow since it's a holiday. It's very possible he's having an allergic reaction to the virus. He needs to be seen so a Dr. can let you know for sure, and the Dr. should also file an adverse reaction report so the FDA and the manufactures of the vaccine know about this. Good Luck, I hope he's feeling okay and the rash goes away soon.

properly, mmr is needed in case you like your baby to pass to a public (and maximum inner maximum) colleges, and maximum day cares. In some states the measles and mumps section is needed by potential of regulation. I certainly have had to look at those issues for myself. I in basic terms had a stem cellular transplant meaning i'm now no longer immunized against something. i'll would desire to pass by using each and all the immunizations in a 6 month timeframe beginning around this time next year. From the analyze I certainly have finished, I certainly have concluded that the possibility in contracting those dieseases is plenty extra effective than the possibility for allergies, the autism concept and a pair others. i'm certainly on a diff comp proper now, so I dont have any hyperlinks, yet while i'm getting of project later i'll submit some. the main suitable concern which you will do is omit to google and spend it sluggish studying the photos and what your criminal rights are on your state. in case you refuse the photos, you will would desire to have some papers signed and you need to have one hell of a time getting your baby into any kind of faculty putting outdoors of homeschool.

Measles is measles.

This is absolute confirmation of the following message.

Do NOT get vaccinated.

A vaccinated person is MORE likely to get a disease than a non-vaccinated person. The whole theory of vaccination is flawed. It causes a weakening of the immune system thus making those who are innoculated more susceptible to disease.
There are so many awful side effects to vaccination that it should be considered extremely dangerous.
Just sit back and think for a while.
Is there any sense in injecting a disease directly into the bloodstream.
We have been subjected to an awful mind control program to enable the drug manufacturers to make a fortune.

If you go to the vaccination liberation web page, at
http://www.vaclib.org/exemption.htm
You will find all the forms necessary to provide exemption for your child.

I wouldn't take him into the ER or the doctor's office without speaking with his doctor first. His doctor might know exactly what is going on, without exposing other children who may not be vaccinated against whatever the rash is.

Since it's Sunday, your son's doctor probably doesn't have hours today. I wouldn't wait until they do have hours. Call the doctor's emergency number (most every doctor has a way to get in touch with them even if it's not business hours). Tell them exactly what is going on and ask what you should do.

Good luck.

It actually could be a mild case of chicken pox and they can be some what common after those shots. Call your doctor first and get their recommendations. All else fells, goto the Emergency room to be on the safe side! Good luck and watch for a fever.

It is a reaction from the MMR shot, but you need to be on the safe side and take him to the dr. anyway. The same thing happened to my son, he broke out in a rash as well. Good Luck!!

Call your doctors on call, or out-of-hours doctor service. I remember my daughter had a rash after her MMR, and I was told at the vaccination appointment, to just carry on as normal with her.
But phone doctors now to get advice.
If you don't know the number, call your normal doctors and their answer machine will tell you what number to call.
Good luck!

call his doctor first, that way you may not have to waste a trip to the ER and have to sit around for hours, your doc might be able to get you in ASAP. the mmr vaccine is made from the inactive disease/viruse so its unlikely that he has the mumps of measels
