Just been watching gmtv, there was a little girl who has recently had measles because she hadn't had her mmr. She was one of 2 new recorded cases in manchester. Anyway, when ds was 6mo (now 10mo) after coming home from dubai he presented with a rash around his neck which within a week spread to his entire body. We took him to st mary's twice and he was seen on the acorn ward, the same ward the little girl on gmtv was on. About 6 different docs looked at him but no one knew what it was. He wasn't ill in himself at all, so no one was particulary concerned. The general concenses was that it was caused by his first try of wheat. After the week it started going and took another week to disappear. The thing that has scared me is that the picture they showed on gmtv of the little girl, it was the exact same rash. The little girl's mother said all the docs didn't think it was measles as it's so rare etc, exactly what they told me. I'm now worried about long term effects if it was. What should i do? As i said he's 10mo now, and appear perfectly healthy in every way. should i forget it?
