Minor Side Effects
I, once again, fronted up to my doctor yesterday and advised him that I am not pregnant. He rewarded me by giving me my second Gardasil vaccination.
Comment from Sister (also receiving injection): Didn't hurt at all.
Comment from Me: Owwwwwwww.
Comment from Sister: You baby, did them sticking the needle in hurt like usual?
Comment from Me: Yeah, and the doctor jolted the needle by accident halfway through, but that's not what really hurts. My arm's aching from the vaccination.
Comment from Sister: Sure. *unbelieving look*
Comment from Me: It ached last time too.
My arm still aches, but if it's like last time, it'll go away in a day or so. A sore arm in return for a vaccination that reduces my chance of getting cervical cancer? Any time, people.
I don't get the banning fuss behind Gardasil. This is a course of vaccination that is helping prevent people from getting a type of cancer. We're preventing cancer. How utterly amazing is that?
