I have to get vaccinate against hepatits A and B. This is a must before you do anything in Polish hospitals...
Do you know anything about possible side effects of this vaccine in corelation with diving of course?

I asked when I got mine done last year, The nurse said there were no problems assocated with it and diving :wink:
 
The only side affect is that if you dive downstream of the Hyperion plant (a water processsing plant in Los Angles that spills untreated effluent when it rains in South Californnia) there is a reduced chance of you contacting Hep A or B.

I got my shots shortly after I started diving. No problems with diving, as i was actively diving in between the course of the injections.

ME...same as jengineer. Never noticed a thing. The other side effect is less fear of eating food in distant lands.
