I had three vaccinations six months apart. I don't if I'm scheduled for any more.

Standard procedure here when you start. I think you have one shot the first session/week, then another a month later, then the 3rd 3 or 6 months later (can't remember). Didn't feel a thing and the labs keep coming back positive for hep b antibodies so I'm good to go I guess

Yep, required by one of the transplants centers I am listed at. Just another series of shots. No problem.

Had them, had the test to see if the vaccine was covering and it was not. So had another 3 jabs, 2 one week apart and the third one one month later.
