Re: Vaccine efficacy
Hello, I have no intention of this post becoming a debate. Yesterday I saw a post regarding vaccine hesitancy and I had some information I wanted to share however the comments had been turned off. There is someone at my work who received an organ transplant and was advised not to get the vaccine as it

Ramipril high dose
Ramipril I was prescribed ramipril 2.5 mg to start for high blood pressure but it didn’t touch it . Was put up to 10mg which has helped , though have read this dose is for heart attacks or heart surgery . Anyone else on a high dose ?

Covid booster
I've just been to have my covid booster and they refused to give it because I have had open heart surgery in August, said I could be at risk of inflammation around the heart, I now have to get advice from Cardiology Consultant to see if it is ok to have. Anyone else experienced this? I had Astra Zenica

Vaccine hesitation
As some who has had a liver transplant and on immunosuppressants obviously and also having had a portal vein thrombosis I’m reluctant to have the covid19 vaccine As reported early on in this “pandemic” certain vaccines were and still are responsible for clotting, besides the clotting issue the fact

Open up to conversations: Hear from a transplant surgeon
In order to feel empowered and safe, whilst navigating our own heath journeys, it is also important we remember we are being looked after by humans - the consultants, nurses, surgeons, anaesthetist - we are all in this human experience together. You may find this conversation with kidney transplant
