indigo_rose99Ah the glamor of travel... Which includes many painful shots! Do they tell you that? 'Cause I don't remember that in the advertising.
Before I left for Taiwan, I went by to have "travel shots." I got a tetanus shot, the first Hep B shot (of 3), and a renewal on my MMR. As I was only going to Taiwan, I did not get malaria or typhoid pills or shots.
Of course, I ended up in India. Ah, to feel so insecure...
At the last second, I had to Skype the travel clinic because I was not going to make that second Hep B shot. Did it Friday morning. The nurse supported my don't-drink-from-water-pitcher-in-India stance. She talked me into the typhoid pills. *sigh* The immunity lasts for 5 years, and better to do it now and not need it than...
Which is why my left arm hurts, and every other day I'm taking a strange pill with water.
Did I mention the glamor?
