5th booster achieved!

Helloo all,

I want to just say that I had my 5th booster today. I’m on 15mg MTX (injecting) & 200mg HDXCN. I didn’t know if my doses would be high enough as I know others have mentioned this. I booked online & took my empty boxes with me to the walk-in centre & it was fine. They even said I’d get a 6th in October! So it’s worth trying if you’re wondering — I was half expecting to be turned away, but they were very helpful. With the way the numbers are at the moment I thought I’d give it a go. I hope this helps. Stay cool in the heat. It’s going to be a rough few days ahead. Ice lollies at the ready! Xx

Just had it!!! Thanks for the encouragement to try. They weren't even interested in my biologic - just the fact I was on methotrexate 😁

Yay! That’s great. So glad you could get it.

Yeah, it seems the MTX is what they’ve been told to look for. Just shows you how powerful a drug it is.
