Swell!

Remember I had my second dose of chicken pox vaccination on Wednesday? Well, the area where the shot was given is still swollen, red and sore after 48 hours. :( Afraid that there might be more serious side-effect(s), I called up my family doctor this morning to inquire. 
From my description, it seemed that the other doctor might not have injected the vaccine in the right place, thus causing the swelling and soreness. But the vaccine still got into my system but at a slower rate. My family doctor said the swelling would eventually go down. As long as there are no serious side-effects, I am relieved. But I know I won't be returning to see the other doctor again.
