Asked By:byvillain in Copenhagen, DK

First of all, thanks to all doctors for their replies on my 2 previous questions. Here is a last one, promise :) I am traveling to Africa with work in 10 days, and had to take a big range of vaccines yesterday (23rd day post-op FUE). I got Yellow Fever, Difteri-Tetanus, Hep A, Meningitis, Cholera, Typhus and malaria pills. This morning (24th day post op) I woke up with fever (37.5C) and shivers. Will this impact my grafts in any way? I havent seen anything about it online. Many thanks again!
