I overcame my fear of needles by realizing it's actually just a tiny piece of metal, and it doesn't really hurt.

Hahaha hoolllly shit son.  How fucking stupid.  You do know if you die all everyone's going to be talking about is how it's your own fault for being such a pussy, right?

We're talking about one fucking shot compared to dying.  If you can't figure out which of those two you'd rather avoid, I think you may be suffering from a severe lack of decision-making ability.  Isn't that a symptom, btw?

She was *most likely* previously vaccinated, and therefore resistant, against the rabies virus. She should have displayed serious symptoms a while ago if she in fact did contract the rabies virus from this kitten. Inflammation of the brain would hurt pretty damn badly and it would cause some nasty symptoms.

However, I do agree with everyone that she should have immediately gone to the doctor when she found out. There are a number of people that are not vaccinated and the result would most certainly be death. :facepalm:

Ahh, okay. My mistake. Sorry about that. I might have been thinking about some different vaccine or something. :confused:

Makes the whole situation seem a lot more serious. Also, that is good information to know...just in case. Ya never know...

Maybe you should learn how to spell before acting like the Lord High Master of all that is right.

Well, I'd want one even if I had been exposed to it just from just by petting an infected animal. I would much rather err on the side of safety in this case.

I didn't go for 2 days after hearing about the test because originally my grandma said I didn't need it and was just calling me to bitch about how SHE had to go. When she called me back later, she said the health dept guy was being paranoid but that I should go at some point. My regular physician said that I should probably go. No one who was talking to me about this made it seem like a big issue at all before this thread, so I thought this was something more on the scale of getting a flu shot and that waiting a few days wouldn't be a huge thing. Especially because it took about two weeks for them to even find out the kitten had rabies and start giving everyone shots.

Anyway, it was four IM shots last night and I have to go back 4 more times. I'll look up info on what badchad said to see if its only supposed to be 3 trips back. (The doc said a few times that this was really uncommon and she had never had a patient need rabies shots before.)

Go in and do it now. I can't believe you're procrastinating on something like this. There are bigger things at stake here than convenience.

The ativan and klonopin worked pretty well, though I did end up dancing with my vacuum when I got home. Doctor said to just explain when I get there that I'm scared of needles and would like to have those pills again.

I don't really expect that I'm going to be encountering massive needles like that every day so I'd rather just take the pills than scare myself with info about horrific ways to die.

:thumbup:

One thing the doc actully said was that she's pretty confident that I'm okay because I'm not foaming or scared of water. I'd thought that was just a joke. My rabies knowledge is clearly lacking.

You should read up on it... It's actually a fascinating story!

I did a report on Louis Pasteur when I was in 5th grade and never forgot about it. :smile:
