Guest guest Posted June 11, 2003 Report Share Posted June 11, 2003 sue~ If you are referring to the hep vaccines....I can speak from experience that they do not hurt. I've had them in my arm...and no pain. I had CMV hepatitis a couple of years back, and the doc wanted me innoculated against all the heps. YMMV. Regards~ Jacque Distal RNY, 5/30/00 Drs.

Guest guest Posted June 12, 2003 Report Share Posted June 12, 2003 Sue, I am a little late, sorry. I have had the Hepatits B series (3 shots) and only one of them hurt because the lady pinched me to hard and left a bruise. Lori Owen - Denton, Texas SRVG 7/16/01 Dr. Ritter/Dr. Bryce 479/335/???
