My son got very ill from the rotovirus vaccine at 4 months old. He had explosive diareeah that smelled strongly of rotten eggs 2 hours after getting the vaccine. This diareah lasted for over 11 days and every single diaper was filled with it. No pee diapers, all poop diapers. He got SO sick. Pedi said he got rotovrus from the vaccine. My question is, if my son had such a strong reaction to one vaccine, does this mean he is more likely to have another reaction with other vaccines? I'm not giving him any more rotovirus ones, but am curious as to if his body is more susceptible because of this reaction. Thank you.

Would FPIES be considered an injury from the rotavirus vax?
