After the excitement of the quiz and a bit of a late night I had to get myself to the surgery for an 8.30 appt with the nurse. It's only a 20 minute walk so I strolled up there. The actual shot was ok, just a bit of a burning sensation in my arm and as I received my vaccine booklet I was feeling ok so I walked the rest of the way to work.
On the way I flicked through my vaccine booklet and found it to be very interesting, with useful hints and tips, pictures and most importantly a record of the vaccines I have received and a timeline of these. 
By the time I got upstairs to my office I was feeling decidedly dodgy and after a few looks of concern from my colleagues and a few quickly typed emails I decided enough was enough and I had to come home. Typical that the last jag I got hit me the hardest! I seem to have had a fairly bad reaction to it which surprised me a bit as the previous two doses hadn't made me feel too bad. I made it home anyway, flopped into bed and after a few hours sleep felt slightly better but now had a throbbing arm to contend with! Not a great day...hope for better tomorrow :)
On a lighter note that's all my vaccines done with. If I can face it I can get boosters for Hep A and B in one year and potentially have life long protection which is probably worth it to be honest. Might be a good idea to book a day off next time though :)
