Patient was healthy at the time she received her shots. 10 days later (Friday) she appeared ill with a rash that would go away and re-appear. She developed a fever and seemed to be having respiratory troubles. Dr Office was closed, but the on-call nurse said it was probably just a virus, but to bring her in if her fever exceeded 103. Over the next week, her fever seemed to break and was mostly gone. She still appeared ill and was not her normal self. Exactly 1 week later (Friday), she had a rash that looked like she had been bitten. It started under her arms. By morning (Saturday) she was covered in a rash that looked like bug bites.(but wasn't) I called the hospital and prepared to take her in. By late morning, her spots had "connected" and formed blotches. Some of the other "spots", now had white centers and looked more like a "bullseye" So she pretty much had 3 rashes all going on at the same time. The Doctor admitted that he had never really seen anything like it, but was sure that it was some sort of reaction. He asked about vaccinations and said it was possibly an allergic reaction to her shots. He diagnosed her with Pityriasis Rosea and said that it would probably last for 6 weeks or longer. (which it didn't) I took her home relieved, but not for long. A greyish-purple ring(rash) started to form around her navel. My husband and I watched her all night. By morning, her diaper  change revealed that many of her welt-type blotchy rashes were now turning greyish-purple. Now scared to death, I took her to the hospital for a second opinion. The Doctors and Nurses were quite upset by her appearance. Her hands, feet, knees, tongue and many other parts of her body began swelling. Her rashes began to change forms before our eyes. The Hospital kept her there all day long (literally) running blood-work and other tests while the Doctor checked symptoms against possible diagnosis. Finally by the end of the day, he said that he really was not sure, but that she appeared to have Erythema Multiforme. (which simply means a rash that takes on several forms) He said that it is probable the condition was caused by an allergic reaction. Her Vaccinations were a good possibility but it could have also been something that she ate. I explained to him that she was not eating very well and had not eaten ANYTHING out of the ordinary. His main concern was that her organs do not swell up (like her body). He said that he was going to notify the hospital and he gave me transfer papers so that I could take her back to them to be admitted if I wanted OR that I could take her back home with me so that she would be more comfortable. He advised me to keep a close watch for any signs that her organs were swelling (or not working properly) He also said to get in to her Primary Care Doctor 1st thing Monday morning. We went home and PRAYED! Up til' that point things were getting worse and worse. By morning (Monday) her bruised looking spots were turning yellow and green. (which sounds bad, but actually looked better than the dark purple and purple-grey rash that had been a day earlier) Once at her Pediatrician Doctor's office, her swelling was going down and most (not all) of her rash was now bruises. We saw the assistant, who checked out her insides and said that he didn't notice any "major" swelling. He said it was probably an allergic reaction to something she ate. I told him that I honesty thought that it was a reaction to the shots. He waved that off and said "Oh we'll never really know...it could have been caused by just about anything." When we left the room, the nurses were conversing and looked at my daughter's pitiful little body.(which looked so much better by now) She said to her " Oh!...Did your MMR shot give you the mumps?" Then she turned to the REAL doctor and said "That's what it is isn't it?, The swelling...Or is that the measles?" He just nodded and smiled. The following day was Tuesday. When we woke up, my oldest daughter came running in and yelling "Mom, Mom... God Healed patient!" And He did too! We had to follow up again on Wednesday and Friday with the Doctors. We continued to see the REAL Doctor, as patient got better and better ! :) We give all the Praise and Glory to The Lord for healing her! I am amazed when I read some of the horror stories that I have come across regarding the MMR Vaccination! She will NOT be receiving the 2nd dose of this vaccination.
