I think I received a
BCG
vaccine
when I was a child in Ireland. Could this be the reason I have latent TB?

At Last I have answers and know where I am.
I will make this post brief , as I have had more than my share. This was my last BCG - I will be seen in about 10 weeks to see it it is still working, if not I will be considered for BCG again probablt. The letter I got for a Thorax CT Scan - I have found out from who'm and why. I asked my BC nurse

My Bladder Cancer Update.
As I stand now I have my LAST BCG treatment this Thursday, that will be followed in six to eight weeks with a flexy cystoscopy. I am at moment Low Grade - If my cystoscopy shows a tumour, then I will have to go in overnight to have it removed, That would not mean back to High Grade necessarily .

Fantasy Beach Garden and an Abstract Painting.
First I went to hospital today - Had BCG have two more and they it's checking with a flexy cyscoscopy about three times a year. At the moment it's clear, but can return so rest of my time, constand checking. Fantasy Beach Garden and a Floral Abstract.

My Bladder Cancer Update.
My latest flexy cystoscopy showed I had no tumour in my bladder, backing up what was said in Autumn 2023 and that was a complete turn-around. Seems my BCG has worked in as far as there si no tumour growth. I still have cancer cells because I have cancer in situ (CIS) but at moment is low grade. So

Wednesday The 14th.
I promised a painting for the 14 and being a heart shape canvas I could not use the easel. I ruined the picture with my sleeve going in paint on palate and it got onto painting - Ruined. I have done one not as good by painting the canvas black, and painted a picture ok for black canvas, Could not

What s happening in our NHS ?- All the shortages.
Two examples - I take Amiodarone for AF and other fast heart beats, I have had to have my prescription sent to another village, and they are running short. Glandosane synthetic saliva spray - Dry mouth is dross to put it mildly. no pharmacy near where I live has any. Not just the the BCG treatment

Following my last post re shingles vaccine and that I had not had a face to face consultation since pre covid I have had a telephone consultation and I thought I would update you. The telephone consultation was with another unknown nurse within the haematology dept. My blood results were stable

Flare after Shingrix shingles vaccine?
Hi Everyone, I received my second (recombinant) shingles vaccine yesterday. The first one caused a mild fever and malaise. This time my finger joints are stiff and pretty painful. Has anyone else had something similar and, if so, how long did it last? Thanks so much
