Covid vaccine priority for 'severe' asthma.
People previously admitted to hospital or needing "continuous or repeated" steroid use because of asthma are to be prioritised for the Covid vaccine. The most severe cases will fall into priority-group four, the "clinically extremely vulnerable", who should have received a letter advising they shield

What priority group for vaccination am I in if I have asthma?
We know there has been confusion about when people with asthma will get the COVID-19 vaccine and what priority group they will fall into. The information we previously shared about priority group six has changed. At the time it was based on communication with the Department of Health and Social Care

Pfizer Vaccine - 48 hrs later...
Hi All, Seen a few posts on here asking questions about the vaccines, had mine Saturday and was advised to watch for possible side effects (if any) for 48 hour period, I can now report nothing, no different to my annual flu jab. Back in 11 weeks for 2nd jab, otherwise all good, even ran in the snow

Have I been given the wrong information?
I am 68, take a preventer (2 puffs twice a day) and reliever daily for my asthma (since 2000), I'm also diabetic type 2, and obviously entitled to my free flu jab every year, and yet I haven't had a letter from the NHS to say I'm clinically vulnerable and should shield, and not had a letter to say

Out of Remission. Starting over...
Hi everyone, Unfortunately after three months of remission I had a very bad flareup. The week before my husband and I were leaving for Maine (Sept) I decided to get a flu shot. Four days later while in Maine I started not to feel well. The usual PMR symptoms. I had no medication with me. My doctor

Vaccine
Feeling apprehensive now about having the jab when I get the notice. I had covid back in march/,April. Reading some of your reactions. I have the flu jab each year with no symptoms apart from sore arms. Fingers cross the vaccine will be the same. I was told none have a live thing in? I'm also not allowed

Covid Vaccine for a Transplantee
Sharing my Covid jab experience. Pfizer, Watford in the UK. On Thursday I got a text and had my jab booked for 1750 last night at the local GP surgery. It is not like a flu jab march in and out. When I turned up I was checked in and given a three page leaflet explaining what the vaccine was, warnings

Bad reaction to vaccine
Hi all, Yesterday morning I had the first dose of the AstraZeneca vaccine and by the evening I had the usual flu jab side effects - headache, stiff neck, a bit achey. By bedtime I was getting worse and then I woke up to full blown flu symptoms in the night. Chills, sensitivity to touch, awful joint

Are who are not sereve asthmatics at risk of cornavirus
While we all know that asthmatics who have sereve asthma are clinically extremely vulnerable to cornavirus. However those of us who have well controlled asthma (take preventive inhaler and have the flu jab) are listed as clinically vulnerable. For myself my asthma has been very well controlled for

Sedation for Covid vaccine
My son is autistic and although invited to have flu jab every year, he has never ever had it due to his fear of needles. To give some back ground to his fear, a dental procedure where a needle was needed resulted in months of trying, passing him from one dentist to another, to a specialist surgery, then

Vodder or Leduc - which is best?
I have eventually found a a lymph drainage therapist, having not had any MLD for over a year due to my usual therapist retiring and the various lockdowns. I have always had Vodder treatment previously, with an hour's massage starting at the neck. When I saw my new therapist yesterday she said she followed

Thyroid S/ Flu Jab
Hi Guys It's been a long time since I contributed to the site, but have read plenty. I have ran out of my NDT (thyroid S) and still waiting for delivery, I placed the order in June last year. I have another bottle but I seem to remember there was a batch which wasn't quite right, and I know the bottle

Vaccine question for the professionals
I plan to take up the offer of the vaccine when I get it (March for over 60s..IF) but my brother, an orthodontist in the USA has delayed taking it as he remembered the link to flu vaccine in 1976, and some people developed GBS after swine flu vaccination, which was a special flu vaccine for a potential
