I never had measles as a kid and came down with it for my 18th birthday. Sick with fever for a week. I had one spot from my forehead to my navel, and was totally tired and wiped out for a week after I had recovered from the worst of it.

I had German measles as a kid…my temp went to 106 and I was hospitalized, sleeping on a bed of ice for three days. Ice baths thrown in because I wasn’t quite solid yet.

The ice was worse than the incredibly vivid dreams I was having.

I don’t think I ever had Measles itself. I did get a shot as a kid. Didn’t seem to help me not get Rubella.
