Reaction to 8 week vaccinations?

2 replies

My DS had his 8 week jabs about 10 days ago. He was fine right after and I gave him the recommended doses of calpol and he was a bit warm but okay. About 48 hours after the jab he came out in red blotches all over his body so took him to GP immediately and she said it looks like a reaction to the vaccines and give him piriton. That worked and he was fine after however she said that he needs to be tested to see what he reacted to before he can have his next set and she would refer him to pediatric allergy clinic.

It's been 10 days and I just checked and they haven't done his referral yet. I understand there's so much stuff going on due to Covid 19 so just wondering what I should do? He can't have anymore vaccines until they find out what happened :(

Nag them. I had to really push for referral for one of my twins a few weeks ago. They are busy, but your DS does need vaccinating, so keep gently pressuring them for the referral. Its in everyone's interest that he gets his vaccinations done.
