Hi Fred,

Welcome to treatment. It should be warming up in Juneau so that's a good time to start. Hope you're keeping your boat shipshape. Let us know how you get on and ask any questions you like. Good luck!

Great, well done, Fred.   Best to be prepared for some `flu like` symptoms starting a few hours after your shot, and set aside some time to take it easy for a day or so.  You mentioned that you`re retired so you should be able to rest if you need to.  Drink enough water to keep yourself well hydrated, and have some pain relief handy, just in case.

Good luck ...keep us posted!  smile
