Yes, the meningitis vaccination is a requirement of CI surgery. Sunryze, if I were you, I'd have the vaccination just to be on the safe side. I don't mean to frighten you, but meningitis is a life-threatening illness which is why it's important for all CI candidates to be vaccinated. I was in my 20s when I received my meningitis shot. All it involves is a slight poke -- nothing painful at all.
