I think I went 10 years since the last shot. I totally forgot until I had to take my little girl in for her first set of immunization shot, she asked when the last time I had one and decided to stick me with a needle. 6-7 years sounds about right though.
last tetanus shot I got was last year. The doctor said they are good for 10 years. I get a new shot every 5 years like clock work. I still had another 2 years.
But I work with an Idiot co-worker. Some days he is about as bright as a burnt out light bulb in a room void of any light. But that is another topic for a venting day.
I know they say it is good for ten years, but every time I go for treatment of a cut or other injury (seems like every 5 years or so) they stick me anyway.
Better safe than sorry! I have read descriptions of death caused by tetanus and it ain't pretty!

Second this. If I can't recall when I had a booster, it's likely time to get one. The new formulations don't act like a mule kick anymore, and if you massage it awhile after the shot, you won't notice a thing.
i have ended up getting one every few years or so for various reasons, last one was because i was drunk and punched a beer bottle breaking it, left a nice deep cut on my knuckle.
