How painful of a series was it? What was the time between injections?

Not painful at all. Just like a flu shot. The painful shots are the post-exposure ones that go in the gut.

I received Imovax. It was a brilliant purple color - it was the prettiest vaccine I have ever seen. Shot #2 is 1 week after the first, shot #3 is 3-4 weeks after the first.

I got post-exposure shots and they were in the arm. 5 shots: 2 shots day 1, then 1 shot day 3, 7, 14.
