Hey, I am going to do my 2 step PPD shots and have decided to hold off on live vaccines like MMR and Virucella which can cause a false negative but will need after the PPD... My question is I looked around and know that Tdap can be taken the same day right since it's inactive what I really want to is if I can also take my Hep B with the PPD for nursing school??? Can a Hep B or Tdap interfere and cause a false positive or am I good and should I take these too? Just real answers please yes or no. thank you

Sounds like your confused read the above post sounds like you didn't read anything I have to do the PPD it's mandatory before moving forward...if you want to answer just try to read what I was asking...also how can you assume everyone takes vaccines you should know by now there has been many people who are against vaccines that's why laws were passed recently to push everyone to get vaccines maybe you should check with the lawmakers before a fling like you know it all and come off rude just answer the question if you can't then why even reply you missed the whole point with your first sentence ha.

Thanks for your great answers, I actually just got off the phone with a nurse who is a friend and a neighbor and she was kind of unaware of the MMR and Virucella being taken with the PPD but also said they can may be done together so that's why I also wanted to check here and it is the reason I am confused about this cause...the clinic I spoke with today also said I can do them at the same time I will probably just wait since I have a little time I guess just to be safe and not have to wait a additional four weeks to do PPD which will not work for me... So I am doing the PPD tomorrow since I will not do the Virucella and MMR since a false neg could pop up since people have actually had this happen when taken together..do you know if it will be ok to at least get the Hep B rolling and Tdap done tomorrow with the 1st PPD...cause I would love to get those done if I can... Thanks for being a good impression of this website!

Sounds insensitive but it's cool and yes to your questions...you could have just politely asked if I revived my Hep B and that I would need proof for my titers...yes I had chicken pox thanks for the advice buddy take care I was just looking for a simple answer to the scenarios not the run around and oh I'm not trying to be insensitive.

Yeah i know I don't even know why that is on there too... But can you please read my first post and advise on which scenario to go with and how to squeeze in the Tdap and Hep B please...thank you.

They just don't allow it at my school...I read here on this forum where someone took the MMR with the 2 step and the second step which was a week later came false positive and they had to wait 4-6 weeks before they could do the 2 step which was longer then they had to get them done... You think I should just get the 2 step started asap Monday wait the week get the second and then like the day after start the MMR and Virucella which are 28 days apart so that would bring me to about 40 days sparing me 5 five days to get all this done...one more question when can I take the hep B and Tdap?? I've read I can go ahead and take the Hep B with the 2 step PPD thanks... If anyone else can please help that would be great thanks everyone..

Immunization: You Call the Shots Check that out and I also have heard people run into the MMR and 2 step problem...

Thanks for the quick response but this is for a school and it is mandatory....please let me know which scenario I could go with and when it will be safe to squeeze in the Tdap and Hep B to not interfere with results if that makes sense thank you kindly..

Hello everyone and thanks in advance... i have about 45 days to get my vaccines together but am confused on the info in regards to the 2 step PPD and MMR plus Virucella vaccines being administered together..online people say you can't and the clinic I'm going to is saying I can do them at the same time but from reading online it says that if you take MMR or Virucella with the first PPD the results could be false and you will have to wait for like 30 days before you can do the PPD again which I can't afford to mess up on. Here is what I need. 2 step PPD MMR Virucella Hep B Tdap Hep C? I don't even know why they have this listed.. What should I do it's driving me crazy no on has a answer for me so that's why I joined the sight and hopefully the knowledge on this forum can help me out... Scenarios: 1. I take 2 step PPD, MMR, Virucella, Hep B, Tdap all in one day as my clinic is saying to do and their will be no problems or...should I? 2. Take 2 step PPD wait the week get the second....then get 1st set of MMR, Virucella together and then wait 28 days for the second sets of these? Also if anyone can let me know where and when I can squeeze in the Tdap, and Hep B. Can I do these if I go with scenario 2 can I do them with the 2 step PPD or do them with MMR and Virucella; will they interfere with MMR, or Virucella? I'm kind of lost hope I am clear in what I am asking here... Thank you to anyone who has read my thread in its entirety to help me out...please help...������������
