Rituximab and flu jab
Hi all. I had my infusion back in June. Is it ok to have a flu jab now? Seem to be so many conflicting comments on here. Plus they seem quite old comments so thought there maybe new advice .. My rheumatology nurse says to wait until 7 months after first infusion which brings me to January which is

Flu jab

I had to go to bed no choice could not stay awake. I slept for 3 hours and felt slightly better but after

Accessing free flu vaccination due to ME
Does anyone get the free flu vaccination from their GP due to having ME? I have always gotten it due to having asthma at my previous GP's, but I moved clinic this summer and the new clinic say I am not entitled (to be entitled under asthma you apparently have to be on a steroid inhaler which I'm not

Pneumonia jab
I had my flu jab yesterday and the practice nurse asked if I'd like to have the pneumonia jab as well. She said that, since my immune system is compromised, she wouldn't do it there and then. She also said it isn't a live vaccine so is safe for me. I agreed and made an appointment in 4 weeks' time. Before

Flu jab
Morning folks. Probably didn't give myself enough time inbetween, had my adalimumab last week and flu jab yesterday. Feel floored. Just pleased I'm off work until tomorrow to try and get myself together. Just wondered if any of you guys have experienced anything similar. Have a good day folks.

Flu jab which one?
Hi all just a quick question, Any body have any ideas which will be the best flu vaccine to take this year in the UK, the 2 on offer is the new quadrivalent vaccine or the new booster vaccine for over 65s to improve the immune response, not sure which one is best for us with our immune responses usually

Flu shot, 2018
Hi All Just had my annual flu vaccination! 👏🏽💜 No negative effects, not even sore shoulder. Pharmacist did say that my 7 mg pred dose may reduce vaccine effectiveness a bit, but still preferable to remaining un-vaccinated . I've had influenza in years past, and was severely ill! I'll take the

Flu Jab Differences
I realise there are two types of flu jabs this year. One for under 65's and a different one for over 65's. I am off for my flu jab tomorrow and would like the better of the two. Has anyone had any luck getting the over 65's? I am in my early 60's but have on-going problems with my lungs. Is this a cost

Update: DEXCOM
So, after the way the flu shot caused the sensor to go beyond weird for the week, the numbers are finally going back down to normal. I replaced the sensor this afternoon and did an after dinner test. It was 174 mg/dl after dinner out. I had a plate of salad, sweet potato, grilled zucchini and some

FEEL GOOD FRIDAY
Hello Folks, It is Friday again and it brings a change in the weather. Autumn is on it's blustery way again. With it brings thoughts of crunching through fallen leaves, wrapping up warmly when out walking and cosy nights in front of the fire. It also brings thoughts of having the flu vaccine to keep

The Flu Jab!
I've just had a text from my GP practice offering me a flu jab.As I am over 60 & have an auto-immune condition,I learned from this forum I am eligible for the "top-of-the range"one. I've only had it once & got a bad cold followed by a nasty sinus infection which with me causes horrendous problems lasting

Flu jab
Hi has anyone had the flu jab yet? Just wondering if anyone had any good reviews. To see if it’s worth having. One of my customer came into work and said he had a bad night and has a saw arm. So thinking about do I or don’t I.

Flu jab worries?
Hi all, We're looking to talk to someone whose worried about taking the flu jab this year? Perhaps you have ended up in hospital with an asthma attack after getting flu? Or you don’t think the flu jab works, or you’re worried about side effects? If you're happy to talk to our media team about this

Flu Jab?
My GP Sugery has offered me the flu jab. (I must fall into the over 18 under 65 with a chronic medical condition catergory). Is this a hypothyroid/Hashimoto reason or are they still treating me as if I have CFS/ME? Just wondered if it’s standard procedure to offer to Hashimoto/ hypothyroid patients.
