Yep I read that too, but on the news it wasn't saying that many would be vaccinated, so I do wonder if they may change who is eligible. We will see.

Only methotrexate over 20mg per week counts unless other specific factors invoved but Sulpha and hydroxy don't count. It is very detailed criteria.

Forgive me for being fuzzy headed but is the 3rd jab to be offered to those on a dose of methotrexate 20mg and over or just over 20mg?

Hmm, I read it as 20 mg and over.. hope I'm right as I am on 20 mg

>20 mg means only doses over 20 mg. if it included 20 mg, it should look like this: ≥20 mg.

😑 Speak to your doc as if you’ve got other factors you could be included.🙏🏻💗

I will try to speak to a doctor and maybe beg. Does the fact that all this is driving me crackers count??

Unfortunately no 😝 I’ve been strictly shielding (sounds like a tv programme!) since early March 2020 and feel close to flipping my lid too! 😳😩🤨 x

If you’ve any other ailments/comorbidities, now is the time to remind them! Ask to talk to the GP re the anxiety if it is getting to you though. x
