[quote=Anonymous]Yes, we had a similar rash, with no fever, after the 12-month vaccinations. We tested for measles, but not for rubella because it is so unlikely to occur in this country. Ultimately decided it was a viral rash. (Interestingly, the titer for measles revealed that the original MMR had not worked -- that's actually why they re-vaccinate in elementary school, to catch the kids who don't react in the first go-round. So we did the MMR again, and saw no reaction that time. The lack of reaction the second time made the doc think the first rash was not a vax reaction. FYI the blood draw for the titer really sucks for a kid.) Did the docs rule out reaction to the antibiotics? Amoxicilin gives me a measles-like rash (all over, not just on my torso).[/quote]
