DD is 13 months and has not yet had the mmr jab. She's had a cold which developed to a fever which lasted several days.. We took her to the out of hours gp this morning as she woke screaming with pain. She'd also developed a big rash all over her trunk and back. The nurse thought it looked like a measles rash. It looks the same as pics on the net.Also she has a severe ear infection (they apparently often accompany measles.)
We're really scared that if she has it, complications will follow.
Does anyone's child have it or had it?
Does anyone know of any local outbreaks? We're in the north west?
Anywat, we're going to the doc's tomorrow and dp is on phone to NHS direct now. I'm just scared she'll get worse overnight.
Thanks so much for reading thisx
