A member asked:
I received the post-exposure rabies vaccine but would like to assure my antibody level is adequate. can i do this thru a blood test requisition?

Your doctor: Your doctor can order a blood test for antibody level and you should consult with her/him. Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. For nutrition: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/. Get HPV vaccine. Wish you good health!
