Flu jab and Covid vaccine
I'm due to have my flu jab (delayed as I needed a latex free jab ) on Friday and wonder whether I should cancel as I'm over 80 and therefore as far as I can understand the proposed rollout of the Covid vaccine here in the UK, I could get it in the next couple of weeks. Is a contraindication likely

learning disabled but not on flu jab list
Every year it is the same - I get called to have a flu jab - as I am a carer and I have asthma and then I book a jab for my son at the same time. I always have a bit of a tussle with reception who try to tell me he isn't on the list. I explain he is entitled, and after a bit of a discussion, we make

Skin pain driving me mad
Two years ago, following insect bites my immune system kicked off. It started suddenly with big red patches of sore skin all over my body. I was given strong steroid cream which didn't work. Then came agonising neuropathic skin pain which feels like every inch of my skin feels as if there are prickles

Am on weekly taxol and am halfway through. Toenauls disappearing or are rough and brittle and fingernails are moderareky strong but brittle and the white is increasing so may lose the nails. Any advice other than a vitamin A greasy cream?

Has anyone been told they cannot have a flu jab?
Has anyone been told they cannot have a flu jab because they have not had a prescription for their inhaler for a period of time? I have received an NHS letter, however, my doctors surgery feels that I am not eligible. Although I am lucky enough for my asthma to be under control at the moment, I am still

Flu shot ?
Are people with APS or compromised immune system not suppose to get the flu shot? My dr says I should as I also have IGA deficiency (barely have this in my system). I was doing IVIG infusions until a few years later I had a bad reaction - so I stopped them. I’m a lil confused as I read different things

Ataxia & flu jab entitlement
Good Evening all, hoping everyone is ok. I’m just wondering if any of you ataxia sufferers receive the free flu jab from your local health centre & are you on the list at your GP centre? I don’t appear to be on it at my health centre, so was just wondering if I should be? Many thanks in advance.

14 day quarantine from child who has received live flu vaccine needed?
My 11 year old daughter, who lives with my ex is getting a flu jab tomorrow. The school nurse has advised us not to have contact for 14 days as it is a live vaccine. Is this necessary? I had my own jab a month ago.

Recurring Shingles
I have had PMR for almost 3 years and I’m currently taking 8.5mg prednisone. Around 2 years ago I developed shingles for the first time. A few month later my second bout developed, then another. Looking back through my diary the shingles errupted a few weeks after having the flu vaccination or common

VACCINATIONS
Although I always have an annual flu jab my consultant requested my doctor give me another pneumonia jab and a HIB jab. Although I have bronchiectasis I understood the pneumonia jab was a one off. I had it 10 years ago. Also has anyone on the Forum had a HIB jab and what is it for? The nurse

Flu Jab UPDATE
Thanks for such a wonderful response to my post 2 days ago. I did pursue the matter, as lots of you suggested, and after lots of further explanations I have been given a date for a jab on 4th Dec. Thank you for all your responses, you gave me confidence, Alyson (Muffin)
