When was the last time you got a tetanus shot?

I think you're supposed to get a shot every 10 yrs. or so and I think I am way overdue but I am too scared to get one Chat Icon

Re: When was the last time you got a tetanus shot?

2003.... I got a complete medical work-up when I began my post-doc.

they tested everything, did titers on all of my prior immunizations and gave me a tetanus booster...

I think it should be given more frequently than every 10 years... I vaguely recall it should be every 4-7 Chat Icon

I got one in 2003 too. I sliced my finger on a metal object and they gave it to me at Urgent Care.

Re: When was the last time you got a tetanus shot?

1993. My arm blew up like a softball. It was then that I found out that I am allergic to Tetanus shots. Who the heck is allergic to Tetanus shots?? There are alternatives to the booster shot. Now I take pills instead.

Re: When was the last time you got a tetanus shot?

I got on in 6/01 part of the requirement to start nursing school. That an the Hep B vaccine. Most people don't keep up with it. If you ever take a trip to the ER they will usually give one to you there.

I think it is good for up to 10 years and then you only need to get one if you are exposed to something that can affect you?

I had one in Feb/March 2007, when I stepped on a piece of a broken lead crystal bowl. Other than that it was 1995 in college, I slipped on some ice and fell onto some rusty porch.
