Pre-departure Preparation - Vaccination (Part 3)

As a preparation for my trip, I got some vaccinations. Read here and here for the stories.

Last week I went back to the clinic. It was time for my second dose of Hepatitis B vaccination. This time it wasn't sore at all! Because every time I got different doctor, I'm wondering whether the soreness or the lack thereof has something to do with the doctor. Or, I'm just so used to being stabbed with needle on my upper arm.

After that second dose, I am only around 70-80% immune to this virus. The third (and the last) dose will be in 5 months. And after that I will probably get myself tested whether I have the immunity or not.

I also requested some more travel medicine, and the doctor was more than happy to prescribed me more stuff. Of course. After all, he got money from those medicine I bought.
