Ahh: this is good advice!: If it is possible to convince them to separate vaccinations more, with separate visits. A lot more trouble for everyone. I did fight for that for my baby son, 27 years ago etc!- so why don't I feel comfortable asking for that for myself, and standing my ground??!- Partly because I know how busy and stressed all the nurses and doctors are, with the patient load they have ( I am in NYC, which makes you feel like a tired ant in a booming anthill, often!)- so if it works for them and their schedule, and it isn't dangerous, I feel I should follow their lead. I could definitely be wrong though( or rather, They might be!) and it might be worth it to insist on separating the shots more. Hmm.

Thanks for the reminder to Relax the arm: that is one thing I have never done!- and I'll certainly try it.
