Answers:
Besides following the latest recommendations from your doctor, you may consider the following!. Get a blood test to see if you have immunity!. There is a blood test that checks for antibodies to Hepatitis B!. If you have a high enough level of these antibodies, you should have some protection!. One way to get the latest recommendations explained to you is to call an "Infectious Diseases" doctor (look them up in the yellow pages)!. Ask to speak to a nurse and ask your question!. Sometimes it helps for someone to explain the latest recommendations rather than reading about them!. Good Luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
