Covid Antivirals
Hi, if we get Covid is it still advisable for us to ask for the antivirals or is it so mild now that patients with blood cancers don’t need them? Suzy

Covid & Flu booster
Hello everyone I recently started on Benapali injections….2nd one this week so obviously can’t tell if it’s helping yet. So far only tiredness as side effect. Do I have to stop for 1 week before having the Covid and flu boosters ? Also I am due my second Shingles vaccination and trying to avoid

The forgotten half million?
We went from Shielding to being High Risk to being Vulnerable. Are we now the Forgotten? I ask, because we were told that the Autumn vaccination programme was starting on 18th September, and I started to hear of people getting appointments and inoculations but from my knowledge of their condition and

Covid & Flu Vaccinations
Can anyone please tell me if you have had both the flu and Covid vaccinations at the same time please. If you have did you suffer any worse side effects from having them at the same time? I have both booked at my GP's but am not happy to have both together as I think this is a first time it has happened

evening update
I don’t have head lice or covid! My nurse checked my head and I took a covid test this morning. I am congested but I think it’s just allergies. I’m a little nervous though bc my temp has been around 99 all day today. Usually I run a little cooler. Today felt much better than the past few days, so I hope

anxious
I woke up feeling somewhat less anxious this morning, which is great. However, my head started really itching so now I have to go to the school nurse to check to see if it’s head lice. My boyfriend also texted me saying he’s stuffy and his throat hurts a little. I really don’t want him to have covid.

Covid booster and thyroid blood test
I am due to get my annual thyroid blood test in October. Have just realised that I get my autumn Covid booster the day before. Is it likely to have any effect on the test results?

Time to try some extended release?
I realize this comes up for discussion quite frequently, but I’m going to ask for some advice here for my particular situation.

Hi there! I have a sad story to tell about the last 6 months. I had a severe kidney stone infection (and UTI) in the spring. I was slowly doing better on my new thyroid medication (Erfa), but the infection caused bacteremia/urosepsis and I developed severe confusion. I had started taking my thyroid

Covid-19 jab - book now or wait
In the UK, the Government is rolling out its autumn Covid-19 vaccination programme and encouraging those eligible to book their appointment as soon as possible. However, there is some concern that the current vaccines being used may not offer protection against new Covid variants such as Pirola, and
