here comes the needle...

visited my gp today to receive my vaccinations.

i have a fear of needles - they make me feel slightly oozie. but i put on my brave face and handed over my arm. admittedly, it wasn't painful at all and was over before i knew it. my arm is a bit sore but i'm not sure if that is from the jab or from my repeated attempts at wakeboarding?!

so, dipetheria/tetanus/polio - check. i will also need the combined hepatitis A & typhoid fever which requires a prescription so i will return for this. there are various other vaccinations which are recommended but i am still researching which ones i will take. please do provide feedback if you have any relevant information.
