DS has sore throat after Prevnar

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 

Hy 3 yr old got a 2nd dose of prevnar 5 days ago and has been complaining of a sore throat as of this afternoon. It's hard to say yet if it's strep. I'll have to see how he's feeling tomorrow. I know that Prev. is a vaccine for that type of strep...at least I think it is. Has anyone had experience with the vax leading to strep? If he is still feeling it tomorrow I will take him in to his ped as I don't think there's any way around ABs for strep. Poor guy. I was so hesitant to even get him this vax and I'll be so upset if this is what it leads too.

It could also be he picked up another type of germ at the drs office too...or the super market or anywhere in public...and even if it was the vax that caused the sore throat, no dr is going to admit it.
