My unvaccinated 17yo dd received her MMR titer results and shows no immunity. She is required to have the MMR vaccination by the college she will attend in the fall. Does anyone have experience with this scenario? Options? Ways to minimize impact? Thanks!

Love,

Davin has had to get it numerous times for ASU (since his titer shows no immunity either - even after multiple doses.) And Sarah had to get it before Benedictine, also (just a booster, tho, for her.)

the injection site was sore for a few days, but no other issues or complications at all.

I had it redone 3 or 4 times in a 5 year span now I have great titers 15 years latter. Yes I would vaccinate her measles is making a comeback and it can be deadly to pregnant moms and in utero babies. Annie

My sons have attended Madonna in Michigan, Franciscan U in Ohio and Benedictine in Kansas and we have obtained exemption forms from all of these schools on line which we and our family doctor filled out and sent in. We had no problems.
