Hi, Sarah68
Thanks for the information.
The meds I am taking are: Accolate for asthma, Antivert for nausea and dizziness/vertigo, Colace for constipation, Compazine for nausea, Duragesic for severe chronic pain, Marinol for nausea, Neurontin for seizure disorder, Phenergan for nausea, Protonix for peptic ulcer disease, Reglan for nausea, Restoril for insomnia, Soma for muscle spasms, and Vicodin for moderate to severe breakthrough pain.
How can I tell if my immune system is lowered?
I often get two shots at a time. One shot might contain several vaccines, such as is the case for the diphteria, tetanus, and polio shot.
The polio vaccine I will receive is in a syringe together with the diphteria and tetanus vaccines.
I unfortunately did not have chicken pox as a child. I wish I had because I would have had lifelong protection.
This is what I put in the previous post to explain why I had to get these vaccinations: I live in the U.S. but I do not have legal status there yet. I just have an expired non-immigrant visa. I won the Green Card Lottery so I will get legal permanent resident status in the U.S. Among the many requirements to get this status, there is the vaccinations requirement: diphteria, tetanus, polio, hepatitis B, varicella, etc. I do not think there is a way for me not to get these vaccinations. I have a choice: either I get the vaccinations to immigrate OR I do not get the vaccinations and the U.S. Consulate will not let me immigrate. I really want to immigrate, so I guess I have to get the vaccinations.
