Rabies Shot again?
Hi Doctor, I took anti-rabies booster doses on 14th and 17th March 2026 along with a tetanus shot on 14th March, and today (31st March) my pet cat (last vaccinated in Dec 2024, currently normal) bit and scratched me during a fight with another cat....causing a bleeding puncture wound (poked hole); I immediately washed with soap and applied Betadine—do I need additional anti-rabies vaccination or am I already protected?
Afterimages, Fatty Liver, Kidney Stones,
I have been diagnosed with grade 3 fatty liver in October. Last Month my CAP was 316 increased from 304 in Oct & KPA is 6.9 decreased from 10.4 in Oct. I have lost 18 Kg since then. Last month I had a blood test done. Kidney Stone too. My B12 levels are 176 and Vitamin D levels are 17. I am taking Bilypsa, Thiotres and Vitreon Tablet once a day. I have floaters for a long time. For the past one month I have been seeing afterimages & ghosting images. Sometimes the prolonged one is for LED and Car Light. I have got my retina checked twice in the past 15 days & it is fine. Today I visited a Neuro-Opthamologist & he thinks Vit B12 & Vit D can be the reason. He prescribed MethylCobalamin 1500 mcg once a day for 20 days (Nuroday I am going for), D3 Shots once a week for 12 weeks & Becasule Z for Multivitamin once a day. Is it safe to take them with the fatty liver medicines mentioned above. MRI Brain (Plain) is also normal. Bilypsa Thiotres Vitreon Nuroday Becosule Z D3 Shot

Rabies and die can't focus on studies
I completed my full anti-rabies vaccination (ARV) schedule at a government hospital, with the last dose on 07/12/2025. Later, I took booster doses on 06/03/2026 (Day 0) and 09/03/2026 (Day 3). Day before yesterday, while walking in a dimly lit park where bats were flying, I did not feel any definite bite or scratch at that time( I would have not noticed because my left hand was next to my friend's right hand ). However, later I noticed a small mark on my left hand, which looked like knife cut 1 cm skin cut . I peeled it yesterday, and now it appears like small puncture-like marks. I am not sure if I might have missed any injury at that time, so I would like a medical evaluation and advice. I will be able to visit the hospital on 02/04/2026 for further consultation. Please I am extremely scared I will die and I have 2 exams pending and can't focus on them also
