I think I'm okay ... if the lockjaw set in that quickly, other symptoms probably would've presented themselves by now, I'd think.

Of course, my ass hurts where I got the shot, but that won't prevent me from getting stuffadecockie in any way.

Yesterday, we were out working in the yard, and my arm brushed against a metal piece of fence, which put a good 9" scratch down my arm. It didn't go really deep -- only enough to have a little blood along the scratch -- but it did cut the skin, nonetheless. I washed it several times -- immediately after it happened and throughout the day -- as we were working in the yard from about 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The scratch happened around 10:30.

:
Whatever the problem, I don't think it is Tetanus. Tetanus is an anaerobic infection which results from a puncture wound, not a scratch or surface cut. It has to be deep enough that no oxygen gets to the wound site (hense associated with punctures).

It was deeper than a "scratch" but I didn't sever my arm. There was blood.
