You need to phone your rheumy nurse first thing in the morning, particularly if you are on steroids, Mtx or other DMARDs or anti-tnf as you're vulnerable to this virus. Your monitoring book should have this info in it.

Totally agree with Cece -It can be dangerous so give the hospital at ring ASAP you may need anti -virals.
Hope your grand daughters OK

thanks
