MMR reaction but titer non responsove?

Published

hi,

I was not sure where exactly to list this but need some advice and havent gotten a call back from my doctor, or program director. I had the MMR vaccine back in 2006 (after having a baby), and I had a subsequent reaction to this vaccine (roaming swollen joints)... at least this is what the urgent care docs attributed it to after blood work and everything else was ruled out. So now (last week), i had the titers done for MMR and I come back non responsive. I am wondering if there is any harm or risk in getting re vaccinated. If I chose not to, can documentation of the vaccine and the reaction suffice?

... a bit of history; as a baby i had only one round of vaccines, as my parents stopped after that due to reactions.

thanks for any advice you can offer :nurse:
