All right, all right, all right

I'm gonna get the shots.

Shit.

Edited to add: Three and a half hours in the ER, since my clinic didn't stock the vaccine. And I have to go back four more times. Argh.

Doesn't bother me the nurse definitely and the doctor apparently needed to go look up the procedure. Bothers me a lot that you had to point this out to them, though!

On the stomach to arm change -- a while ago somebody came up with a much better version of the stuff, so the procedure changed. It's fewer injections now, as well as much less painful. Yay progress!

I'd have thought your situation would be the simplest case for rabies vaccine -- early enough to not worry much, no clear indication of rabies in the animal that bit you (or clear evidence it even did). So why does your clinic have the rabies vaccine, indicating they're prepared to handle some case, but not the other stuff you needed for what I would have thought was the common simple case? That's bizarre! What is just the vaccine good for? Sorry, I know it's not your field and you don't know this answer, I'm just ranting.
