    She's perfectly fine thanks AJ!
    Apart from being stuck inside all day (sun is a big no-no), she is her usual self, maybe a little bit thirstier than usual.
    The spots are paler on her face, still all over her body but really only pin*****s. I remember I had massive spots all over me and I felt terrible for a whole week. It really seems a mild, mild case.

    Wonder why that is? Still waiting to hear my from my friend - Beth was at her daughters first birthday on NYE.....no symptoms there so far.

    None at your end AJ?

    For what its worth I thought I would add my two cents.

    My daughter recently came out in a rash like measles, we spent 2 days in hospital but the docs swore it wasn't measles and it was just some other sort of virus. She was really irritable and covered in the rash. She cleared up 3 days after the rash first appeared and seams fine now.

    Hope Elizabeth has cleared up and life can return to 'normal'

    Who knows? It seems the drs don't know too much about Measles etc since its faded out so much. When Mitch had Mumps the dr had to look it up, and so did the Nurse On Call!

    Did you look up the symptoms of Measles? The NSW Govt site is very good for this information, and Beth's symptoms were IDENTICAL. Started with a fever, then red eyes/conjunctivitis then 2 days later the spots came out.
