My vet would be very willing to not give these vaccines for another 5 years, rather than 3. Except of course rabies which is illegal to not get every 3 years
but if it were me, I'd finish up his one-year booster round (he's 1 right?) and give the Benadryl beforehand and then stall for a while so you don't have to worry about it since they're not required by law.
Jackson's always been sensitive so we usually give something beforehand (and like yours, obviously you know he's a big boy at 18lbs) and it's a very scary thing w/ ANY kind of reaction (after his reaction to lepto as a pup, I was *terrified*... he got wobbly, back legs weren't working right, he threw up, I thought he was going to die, plus he was my first pup on my own). So I just do where I know he is still protected against these horrible diseases but also not putting him through anything unnecessary.
