She subscribed MMR ** ***** ** ******* ******** ** **** ****** We realised it only after the vaccine was already given..... My LO was given MMR2 this Feb... And again she had to take it..... She also didn't seem much apologetic...though she admitted it was her mistake and said there is no reason to worry..... Though I confirmed that there are noside effects from my family doctor as well....but still wanted to warn everyone....be careful....
