Meningitis b vaccine- recent experiences? Post Reply

[laurah]

Hi there

I am due to take my 21 month old toddler and 4 month old baby to have the new meningitis b vaccine at a private gp clinic next week.

I would be interested to hear people's recent experiences of this jab, including any side effects suffered. I would also like to know what other people have been paying per dose- I have been quoted £90 at the place I've booked.

Thanks in advance

My children (6, 5, 3) had no after-effects at all after the first dose. A bit grumpy maybe, but hard to know whether that was entirely attributable to the jab They've yet to have the second one. £90 sounds good- which clinic? I paid £150 per dose; rather irritatingly the receptionist made a mistake when I booked and told me that was for both and only after the injection did I find otherwise! I'd be keen to hear where you are going as would book the second set there. Thanks!

Please can I have the details of the private go clinic - been trying to find a place that does it and haven't been able to. In fact I was looked at very strangely when I asked about it at the 8wk jabs and was told it didn't exist yet!!
