Pneumococcal Vaccine
Hi I have PV and I am 65 in October. I have been given an appointment for the pneumococcal vaccine. Just wondering how others were after getting the vaccine, thanks.

Shingles Vaccine
I have RA and am currently taking hydroxychloroquin, methotrexate and amgevita. I’m trying to work out whether at age 61 with a compromised immune system, I will qualify for the new shingrix (shingles non-live) vaccine on the NHS? Does anyone know?

Shingles Vaccine
Hi everybody. Just looking at the new advertising campaign for the shingles vaccine although those who are 70-79 are entitled to it looks like those of us over 50 who are severely immune suppressed can have the 2 x dose of (non live) Shingrix from September 1st. Is this right? Please shoot me out the

Looking for a Surgeon with Specific Skills
This is a long shot. I’m an Aussie. I had HD brachytherapy for prostate cancer in 2010. In 2016, I was diagnosed with Carcinoma in Situ in the bladder. I’ve had multiple rounds of BCG, and I’m now heading towards a radical cystectomy. My urologist is nervous about the risk of damage to the rectum

NHS shingles vaccine will be offered to almost one million more people
I’m not sure whether this has been mentioned already (I did check) but as I just found this recently elsewhere thought it might be of interest to those of us who have not been eligible for the vaccine yet. https://www.england.nhs.uk/2023/07/nhs-shingles-vaccine-will-be-offered-to-almost-one-million-more-people

pericarditis
Hi everyone, I'm just looking for a little bit of advice from any fellow sufferers... I was diagnosed with pericarditis in January on the 10th day of a Covid-19 infection, after ending up in A&E due to chest pain and difficulty breathing. That acute pericarditis went away around a month later, but

Little update
Hey Everyone Just a little update from me, Olive is doing really well, growing nicely and around midnight until 3am she has a little rave in my womb and is really active. She is definitely going to be a party goer and a footballer when she's older. Dan has moved in with my mum while he recovers,

Syncope is a symptom not a condition
Do you and your GP appreciate that Syncope is a symptom not a condition? Every patient who experiences a blackout should be given a 12-lead ECG to check heart rhythm analysis and look for arrhythmias and genetic, inherited or familial heart rhythm disorders. STARS website, www.stars.org.uk

Strong negative reaction to first Docetaxel treatment
I am participating in an NIH study combining Docetaxel with an immunotherapy. I had my first treatment of only Docetaxel this Tuesday. I lasted 2 minutes and 7cc before I had a severe reaction - severe flushing (glowing red from head to toe), difficulty breathing, sweating, uncontrollable shivering.

ecg monitor - electrical interference
hello I had my 7 day ecg monitor put on yesterday! Been having fluttering and flip / flop sensations. Not hopeful will show up as can be intermittent. Usually happen at rest. But I remembered this morning a paramedic previously taking my ecg at home saying to turn off the electric riser recliner chair

I posted recently about my paroxysmal AF (since 2020) normally lasting up to 3 days, this time now entering its 8th day. Went to GP yesterday, all the usual tests, ECG, nothing abnormal except irregular heartbeat. The conclusion being probable it has done its time on paroxysmal and is trying out persistent

sudden sharp pain
can anyone relate to a sudden sharp body pain that goes as quickly as it comes? I was vacuuming earlier & had a really sharp pain under my left breast/top of stomach. It scared me thinking it’s my heart but I had cardio tests, ecg, heart scan & 48 hour monitor test last November & everything was good
