MMR pre-school booster side-effects?

DD1 had hers 5 weeks ago

For the last 2 weeks she has been unwell (though not what I'd call poorly) in some way or another. So far has complained of aching arms and legs, sore neck, "headache" (she couldn't be more specific than that) and has had a bit of a temp a couple of times. None of these have occured at the same time, btw

She's been able to do her normal stuff, mostly. Tonight looks a bit pale and is hot. Eating, drinking and sleeping normally.

Could this be related to MMR?

it may be the mmr or it may be all the viruses that are about at the moment. Both ds and dd have had sore ears, temperatures, colds, etc and thay are all following on from each other.

Any rash? My DD had some of this, particularly the aching limbs and general lethargy. May be a co-incidence that she'd just had the booster jab, but she contracted something called HSP (Henoch-Schonlein Purpura). Very unusual though, so would be unlikely your DD had that, but look out for the rash - starts off a bit chicken-poxy, but then goes purply. Either way, get her back to the GP for a once-over.

Thankyou for replies

Will see how she is over the next couple of days... if it continues will go to GP
