Should i be vaccinated against other types if i have one type of hepatitis?

Yes: Yes, because you are still at risk for getting the other infections. If you are still in the age and demographic profile that qualifies as needing the vaccines, then you should get them. Talk this over with your doctor.

Yes: Your liver is already stressed by the type of hepatitis you have. Protect yourself against other types of hepatitis with vaccination. Talk to your doctor about how to avoid other types of hepatitis; there are many types of hepatitis but only two we have vaccines against.
