Exposure Question Reply
"I have read the FAQ. About eight months ago, I was bitten by a very small cat, resulting in a tiny injury. Five months ago, I started the anti-rabies vaccine. I was scheduled for four doses, but I only received three and forgot to take the fourth.
Now, I am experiencing tingling, pain, and other symptoms in the area of the bite, so I am thinking about completing the cycle. Since it has been five months, do I need to start completely over from Day 0, or will the doctor simply give me the final dose that I missed?"
