Jen and I both got our shots (long story involving me on rope during a bat flight....). Given cavers exposure to bats ( I know I know less then 1% of bats, bla bla bla) should it be common practice to get the pre-exposure series?
I had the complete post exposure series last year. Wasn't all that bad, a shot in the arm every weeks for a few months (not in gut any more). The worst part of it all was mental, Rabies isn't a nice subject to dwell on---especially when it relates to you ! Starting symptoms are 'feeling of dread' and mild fever....talked about a psychosomatics dream!!
