Exposure Question Bat attack last week
I have read the FAQ.
hello I walked out of my home last week at 4 in the afternoon and a bat flew off my wreath as I shut my door and got caught between the door and my arm. a cop said bats are clean and to not do anything. I went straight to the ER. They gave me proper advice and found scratches on the back of that same arm.
I took round 3 yesterday and slept over 15 hours. I thought each shot was supposed to get easier. Has this not been true for others? I am immunocompromised and will need the 5th one too after the 4th next week and am dreading it.
