I bring it in to the appointment and they tell me I need to retake all the vax, even though they are already on my records. The reason they gave is that each vax has to be within 5 years, and a lot of mine are from when I was a kid (I'm 30 now). So I didn't have enough $ so I had to leave and told them I would reschedule. I understand the TB test should be current, but does this sound right?

Are they just trying to rip me off? Does anyone recommend a Civil Surgeon in the Los Angeles area? If so, how much was it?
