Hi gang, I was at my doctor's yesterday, a new dr. who I have just been seeing the last several months. I was in just to be checked to get refills for a couple of medications and also to ask about getting the tetanus booster, because it's been over ten years since I had one. She said because of the TM she wouldn't recommend getting one unless I did step on a rusty nail or something like that. She said the danger of tetanus isn't what it used to be. I have heard of people getting TM after flu shots, chicken pox, and hepatitis vaccines, but not after tetanus, and the last one I had was after my TM onset, and I handled that with no ill effects. She will give it to me if I want it, or I could always go down to the health department. I certainly don't mind avoiding a shot, and I am wary of a lot of vaccines, but I thought the tetanus one was relatively safe, and I thought the risks of not having it were greater than the risks of getting it. What do you think? Barbara H. _http://barbarah.wordpress.com/_ (http://barbarah.wordpress.com/)
