[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 35053, member: 1991"] I had to laugh at the car door - it sounds so bizarre, but these things happen. We had to park our little van out on the street because the fuel pump died. husband bought another one but he needed the workshop to put the new one in and they were really rushed, after Easter. One of the kids worried that the car would get stolen, out on the street, and husband just laughed - how can you steal a car when the fuel pump isn't working? The reaction - I was worried for her when I read that she had a fever. My health problems are due to an allergic reaction to an immunisation, I always worry when I hear about a similar reaction, although I know I was just very unlucky. The reaction itself - I was feeling much better after three days. Then my nervous system got inflamed, on day 4 (as I said, very unlucky - supposed to be 1 chance in 10 million). I would have thought it was a bit early for cellulitis at the injection site, unless they're talking about extreme localised inflammation? If so, keep an eye on that spot. I developed a painful, necrotic lump which hung around there for months. No lasting problems from that, though. But it did pinpoint the injection site for my doctor who worked out that I'd been given the immunisation too close to nerve pathways (which is probably why I'm a neurological basket case now). She had a combined immunisation, didn't she? Or was it tetanus booster? Basically, can you isolate which it was that caused the reaction? It would be useful to know, for the future. It's ghastly, feeling sick like that. I hope she feels better soon. The aches & pains are bad, along with the rigors and sweats. If it's any consolation, I don't think there's much a doctor could have done, apart from suggest you treat the symptoms. Poor kt! Marg [/QUOTE]
