Guidance required-
I'm planning a holiday to Mexico and I've been adviced by numerous people to get various vaccinations such as hepatitis and tetanus, however others have said that as a result of being diabetic I may not be able to have them or actually may require more vaccinations. Was hoping someone could shed some light on this for me. As I was told you need to get them at least 6 weeks before hand.
 
Make an appointment at your GP, they know exactly which jabs you need for where and your history of your health and any medications that you may take that could have contradictions.
 
I have a family member who has just jetted off to Mexico and they asked the GP about any jabs they may need before they go. He said they didn't have to have any but just ask your own GP to be sure.
 
Besides the immunizations ... Please ,no matter how safe they tell you the water is don't drink the water and stay away from ice cubes . :)
