Haven't been gouged yet but I've been gutting houses and getting soaked in fricked up nasty water for days. It
s been a long time since I got a tetanus shot. Is that something you can get at a pharmacy now days?

I don't think you can get it at a pharmacy. Just about any clinic will have it, though.

Probably not but Lake After Hours or a walkin clinic should be able to do that.

I've been thinking the same thing.. Is it something to consider, or are we okay?

Ok good to know. I have to stop by there on the way to the next house today.

I feel kind of fricked up like I'm running a low fever today. May be paranoid or just tired.

shite my father in law was trying to get me to rub Clorox on myself as a disinfectant yesterday. I thought he was fricking with me but then he did it to himself. Can't be good for you. I opted for rubbing alcohol.

You get 10 years between boosters if you don't injure yourself. Just go to your primary care physician's office. And if you don't have one, essentially every insurance plan will cover a routine wellness visit with vaccination annually. If you're established, you can call for a shot record and see if you need one. If you do, you can probably just have a nurse visit which is typically quick and easy.

Isn't that part of the TDAP shot? If your wife had a baby recently, you should have gotten the TDAP shot and should be good.

Walgreens clinics and CVS clinics have them as do any emergency care or walk up clinics. You just tell the person at the counter what you want you pay and wait for your name to be called. They stick you with that painful needle of suffering and then you call it a day.

Yes. The "T" in TDaP is for "tetanus"
The d and p are "diphtheria" and "pertussis," respectively.

At Target Pharmacy you can get:

Tetanus shot
Flu shot

Or if you are traveling out of the country:
Hep A vaccinations
Typhoid vaccinations

Defintley you can just go to Wal Mart for a Tetanus shot.

and the "a" is for "acellular". There's your random almost useless trivia for the day.
