   It’s been a week since my MMR and my immune system is noticing. Feel yuck. Joints hurt. Throat a bit swollen.

   Although apparently live vaccines are really good for you, so there’s that.

   Might be paracetamol time.

     Dear god, I feel like shite on a stick.

     The perils of telling your immune system “that wanker over there spilled your pint!”

     @Nikkileah thanks. I was gonna say it’s not real, but it is. MMR is a live vaccine (3 live vaccines in a trench coat), but they’re toy diseases. Still annoying though.

     @JohanDiederik Yeah. Being Gen X I had a single dose measles vaccine and nothing for the other two.

     Figured I ought to sort that out. They want me to take another one in 5 weeks.

     Oh. Light bulb moment.
     I thought I'd managed to catch an atypical cold despite all the making and hand washing.
     This makes more sense; I'm 11 days in and been feeling off for about the last 5.

     @goatsarah OK, that’s clear. I actually don’t know my status. It may be good to find out. Have a nice Sunday and take care!

     @JohanDiederik If your medical records have no record of the jabs they’re more than happy to restab you. Might need to pencil in a couple of days’ downtime a week afterwards though. aches

     @WestLawns no. This isn’t a redo. I’m too old to have had MMR as a child.

     @goatsarah do you have to redo all childhood vaccines?

     My friend is having to do this and be in isolation for a while.

     @WestLawns I had a single dose measles vaccine which is now regarded as insufficient. Nothing against mumps, and AIUI not rubella.

     We had separate vaccines at school.
