Study provides insight on how to build a better flu vaccine.
Flu season comes around like clockwork every year, and sooner or later everyone gets infected. The annual flu shot is a key part of public health efforts to control the flu, but the vaccine’s effectiveness is notoriously poor, falling somewhere from 40% to 60% in a typical year. A growing body of evidence

Flu jab
Many thanks for all the helpful replies, I'm resolved to have the flu jab this year as I'll never know if the jab triggered PMR and anyway I'm more at risk now especially this winter.

Flu shots?
i am curious. Do you get a flu shot? I am on ocrevus and neurologist says I should get one 6 weeks before my next infusion. I have never had a flu shot since i dont believe in them. I have heard too many bad stories. But now maybe i should get one. I would love to hear your comments, suggestions

Any studies on longterm effects of live shingles vaccine and PMR
I was wondering if anyone knows of any studies that have been done about those of us that contracted PMR after taking the live shingles vaccine. I wonder if PMR will last as long in our system as the shingles vaccine antibodies are active in our system? The pharmacist says the antibodies last 5+years

Should I have the flu jab
I'm 63 and new to this group. I contracted PMR 2 years ago, a few days after having the flu jab. My doctor agrees that the flu jab may have triggered PMR but there is little evidence to confirm this and his advice is to have the jab again this Autumn (I didn't have it last year) as my immune system is

Shingles Zostavax injection
Am very appreciative of all the communications and information on this site. I developed PMR as a result of the shingles(zostavax) vaccine given at the same time as the flu vaccine even though I had two contraindications for administering zostavax. I am 80 years old ( Nice specifies not suitable for

Matt Hancock to bring into Law allowing Nurses and Pharmacists to give Flu Vaccine.
https://twitter.com/rcngpnforum/status/1298971404784852993?s=21 This is news to me, have Lloyd’s Pharmacy illegally been giving me the flu jab for the last three years and before that my GP’s Practice nurse?!😉

Flu jab early call-September!
I have been contacted already by my GP to get my annual flu jab. I have been called early because I have been shielding. I’m not complaining, just wondered if anyone else has had this conversation yet? Thank you😎

High Dose of B vitamins (B1, B2, B3 and B5) in Parkinson Disease
Hi everyone. Reading about the B1 therapy of Doc Constantini also on this forum, I ask myself (and to everybody) if the others B vitamins (in addition to B1), involved in Krebs Cycle (see pic - vit. B1, B2, B3 and B5) may have a similar/sinergic effect on Parkinson Disease. Any ideas/info/experience

Shingles vaccine
Shingles vaccine. Hi am am ETJak2+, I am unable to have the live shingles vaccine with nhs, but I have read that there is an inert vaccine available. Has anyone had this on the nhs and if so how did you achieve it. Thank you in advance.

AIH diagnoses with asymptomatic patients, questions and my story
Thought I'd write here, I've been googling for a few weeks now about AIH and it's pretty hard to find support group forums other than this. I'm not from the UK, but cant find anything in my own country. I'd love to hear some stories how one got diagnosed with mild lft elevations and how long it took

HRT & Supplements
Hi I’ve been on HRT for a month now (oestrogen gel and progesterone tablets). I’m also taking Levo and T3. I’m slowly easing back in my supplements as I wanted to start the HRT on its own. I’m now back on vitamin B complex and vitamin D but I want to add in magnesium. However I’m not sure if it’s

Flu Jab Text
Hubby was sent a text which recommends the flu jab. It has a long link for further reading which looks to me like a twitter link - and as his phone isn't a smart phone (he is BLIND!), what exactly is he supposed to do?

Urine Therapy cure Restless Leg Syndrome
I had RLS many years. Not so severe. But in 2020y things worsened. I couldn't sleep nearly every night, and in the morning was completely run out. Tried to cure myself with supplements like magnesium and iron. I drunk vitamin d and all b vitamins. Unfortunately nothing helped me. Through the past years
