DS has just had his MMR. I had a couple of very slight concerns/questions, more than anything just to put my mind at rest.
I'd done a lot of research into it, and despite feeling ok about going ahead, had gathered that if the child's immunity was compromised this might increase the risk of a bad reaction. DS has a dry rash on his back - he's had it before and was told at one point it was eczema, then subsequently a post-viral rash. So while I had no concerns at all about his health at the moment (he's fine, no illness), I just wanted to be sure that she (or a dr) were confident he was perfectly well - ie no virus.
Perhaps I'm being a bit PFB, but I coudln't help not being 100% relaxed about the MMR above any other jabs, simply because it is still controversial despite widespread take-up etc.
Anyway, this nurse basically smirked at me, didn't even want to look at his rash until I asked her to (twice), then said it was barely there, she had to really strain to see it (which was absolute bollocks, it was clear as crystal and bumpy). After the jab I said "so I presumably have to wait for a few minutes to make sure no allergic reaction" as I've been told to for every other jab, and again she smirked and said "in all the time I've been here we've never had a reaction". That was it.
Maybe it was simply her normal manner, and maybe I am being PFB, but AIBU to be a bit irritated by her attitude?
