Needled Again!

Just back from a fun trip to the Downtown Travel Medicine Clinic for my trip vaccinations! This time I didn't have to get Yellow Fever, as that is good for 10 years and I got it for my last trip to Africa 5 years ago, but I did get Typhin Vi for Typhoid, Avaxim for Hep A, and Menactra for Meningitis. He also gave me Dukoral, which I need to take 2 weeks and 1 week before I go, for Cholera, and a prescription for Malaria meds. He also insisted on giving me a prescription for something for diarrhea, which I won't get filled, as the Dukoral also covers that. This time it cost $382.00, and that's not including the malaria meds - I don't know how much those are yet.
