Thanks Gina for mentioning this.
Pretty sure I am A positive blood type. My mother is O pos and Dad is A pos.
Never had RhoGam.

I had the following shots:

At age 2 had Gamma Glob. against the red measels that Mom caught in the hospital when she was there to give birth to my sister.

Age 5 had Salk vaccine against polio in a sugar cube.

Age 6 had DPT shot - Diptheria, Pertussis, Typhus.

Rubella at age 17 or so.

1968 - Typhoid/paratyphoid so I could travel in Europe/ 2 part

Had 2 part anti-Hep A AFTER Breast cancer diagnosis as I was possibly exposed.

ALLERGY SHOTS:

One round weekly in summer, biweekly in winter at age 7 until 10 or so.

Beatty vaccine series in 1967 - an immune system booster recommended by my allergist.

2 round of shots in mid-to late 80's.

Seems like I got used to being poked with needles at a tender age, huh??
No wonder cancer treatment was so easy as far as the needles were concerned. If I were needlephobic, I would most like be dead by now!

Gina, do you make anything of this concoction of immunizations?
