MODERNA SPIKEVAX (2022) COVID Vaccine Availability Autumn 2023 Uk
Hi all, As anyone had a Moderna COVID vaccine (2022 version Bivalent Spikevax) this autumn in the UK, I have a clinical need to avoid Pfizer and that is all that is being sent out at present. I have been in touch with UKHSA, NHS England, local Vaccine authority, Haematologist and GP without any joy.

covid vaccine
My Hematologist suggested I not take the flu or covid vaccine. She is concerned it will trigger another episode of low platelets. I had been in remission for 15 months last year and I thought I had beaten ITP. I got the vaccines last year then about 2 months later my platelets were back down to 1.

Not what I expected!
After feeling unwell, I’ve had a lousy night, tested in the early hours and have Covid! Had the booster 12 days ago and the flu jab on Saturday. it’s Sod’s Law , I was going to say a flare and low adrenal function feels like Covid with Mumps . Hopefully i can get antivirals , they wouldn’t give them

upping steroids short term to boost recovery?
writing on behalf of my mum who is getting over a respiratory tract infection (or not getting over it to be precise). She has long PMR (getting on 40 yr) and is constantly trying to reduce pred. I recall reading in this forum a recommendation to temporarily increase dose when ill / having surgery etc

Oxygen levels after pneumonia
I was discharged from hospital one week ago having suffered a bout of pneumonia and a RSV I was treated in isolation. I know it will take weeks to recover, but I’m concerned about my oxygen level which hovers around 87-89. Any advice?

Declined lupus Centre help
Hi all, hope you're all doing as well as you can be. Just thought I'd give you an update on something that went from being so hopeful to now being left to struggle once again. If you know my previous posts just before Christmas I'd had a steroid injection and was waiting to see professor D'cruz in London

Finished Venetoclax, then Covid
My doctor prescribed Venetoclax after two rounds of chemo/immuno infusions to fight CLL. I felt great! Swimming half a mile, felt strong. Then bronchitis, pneumonia, and Covid. Was hospitalized and released in 6 days. But my home convalescence is not what I expected. Weakness, coughing, general severe
