Flu Jab
I went for my annual flu jab today at my GP surgery. I know it's not a live vaccine but I always check just before they jab me. My own GP knows me very well but I saw a different Dr today. Conversation goes like this... Me - it's not a live vaccine is it? Dr - I don't know. Me - I just wanted to check

Hi everyone, Had my monthly appointment with my rheumatologist yesterday. She said I absolutely need a flu shot and said I may or may not feel a bit flu-y. I hope not because all week I felt like I was on the edge of a flair. The weather being so crappy all week didn’t help. I dropped 1/2 mg last

Hi Have had PA for a few years now have not had any major issues on the 3 month dose provided by my GP. However I do tend to feel different towards the end of the 3 months which I have taken as a reminder to book another shot. This time not sure why but the waiting list at my GP has gone up to 4 weeks

Question: Pneumonia Vacs
I'm on shaky ground on this one, but the impression I have is that - in the USA - the standard pneumonia vac is 13-valent pneumococcal vaccine (Prevnar 13) ?? Which pneumonia vac is administered as 'standard' in the U.K. and is it as comprehensive as the USA Vac mentioned above?

Is Stage 3 CKD serious?
Hello when I was diagnosed of CKD stage 3 last year I was told that it was nothing to worry about and it was very common, I received a letter from my Dr's surgery inviting me for flu vaccine, decided to ring to find out why as I also have hypothyroidism but had never had vaccine for it. They told me

Does being on steroids entitle us to a NHS flu jab or not?
The NHS website states the following as an entitlement to a free flu jab : "a weakened immune system as the result of conditions such as HIV and AIDS, or medication such as steroid tablets or chemotherapy". However, when I asked my GP yesterday she said "The system has not flagged you up as entitled

Shingles Vaccine
When I went for my flu jab on Saturday my GP, who is knowledgeable about PMR, said that I was eligible for the Shingles jab. When I asked about having this with Pred she said that as I am on 4mg this was regarded as safe. She said that under 10mg is regarded as OK, with only a 20% risk of cantracting

Shingles vaccine or not with immunosuppressant
I have chronic sarcoidosis in the lungs and am permanently breathless if I move around. I take prednisone and mycophenalate. The mycophenalate switches off my immune system. L had a flu and pneumonia vaccines last week , but they also have me down for needing the shingles one. I thought I wasn't allowed
