Posting for traffic, does this rash look like measles?

We've had quite a few high temp, two lots of vomiting on Tuesday and two lots of diaroeah yesterday. The rash was checked over on Tuesday but it's got worse this morning. It's also all over her body. She seems mostly ok I'm herself though.

I have took her to the docs twice already, so I don't want to look too neurotic without good reason Xmas Grin

please don't pay attention to anyone's advice here. I'm a GP - very difficult to diagnose a rash without actually seeing the child. Taker her to the GP if you are concerned.

My gp thought it was viral.

Don't worry, I will get her an appointmemt as soon as they open, I was just looking for anyone who could recognise the rash really

Bless her. My daughter once had a rash that looked like measles and turned out to be viral. Hope you get an appointment and soon get her sorted.Flowers Bear

Does it fade under pressure?
If your worried go to the gp again

I don't recognise it but agree with everyone, take a baby of that age to the doctors.

Hope it goes soon :)

It does fade under pressure.

Gp isn't concerned, esp as she isn't vommiting anymore and doesn't have a high temp.

I'm a bit concerned about me now. I think I have PSB. It's much worse the PFB, as I should know better Xmas Grin
