when was the last time you had a tetanus shot? |

Mine was last month. Tetanus is most often associated with puncture wounds

You get them in the arm.

two days before Rita hit the gulf coast - I was supposed to revisit the doctor about the puncture (stepped on a nail) the day everyone was fleeing Houston.

Are tetanus shots the one that bubble up on your arm, or no?

My last one was in May, 2000. From a cat fight. The cat won and my hand got a bad infection. My arm was really sore from the shot.
Smallpox is the one that "bubbles up" on your arm. |

The arm bubble one is a Tuberculosis test.
They don't even administer the Smallpox vaccine any more. |

2006.
O'Hare Airport bit me. But at least they gave me $3000 for it. |

I have no idea. Should I get one just in case?

I know I got one when I stepped on a nail and once when a glass window crashed down on my head. But that was ages ago and I am pretty sure I got one more
recently.

2005 and I got very ill, arm swelled up and looked like there was a softball in it. Had a 104 fever, ended up in ER being told I'm now allergic to the
tetnus vaccine
all after I got a nasty burn on my thumb from a soldering iron. |

Oh wait, maybe I got one three years ago when I got 10 stitches in my forehead.

The standard they go by is if you have an injury that would require a tetanus shot you should get one if:
1) you can't remember when your last one was OR 2) your last one was more than 10 years ago So, I made it a point of remembering the date because my arm got so sore from the last one.

1988. I got off the riding lawn mower and forgot to put it in neutral. I chased it (yeah, snicker), and some metal part tore off the nail of my big toe as I
tried to stop it (I had flip-flops on). Went to the ER and they made me get the shot.
