A Bladder Cancer Update.
I got a telephone call early this morning, I was still in bed. Was a woman offering me a place in a Private Hospital for A 'FLEXY CYSTOSCOPY' Good news but the hospital was miles away in Preston, in fact the other side. So I asked her could I not get in at my local hospital - She then started talking

shingles vaccine
no you can't have the shingles as it is a live vaccine. You don't get offered the shingles vaccine until you are 70

Pneumococcal Vaccine
Hi I have PV and I am 65 in October. I have been given an appointment for the pneumococcal vaccine. Just wondering how others were after getting the vaccine, thanks.

Shingles Vaccine
I have RA and am currently taking hydroxychloroquin, methotrexate and amgevita. I’m trying to work out whether at age 61 with a compromised immune system, I will qualify for the new shingrix (shingles non-live) vaccine on the NHS? Does anyone know?

Just looking at the new advertising campaign for the shingles vaccine although those who are 70-79 are entitled to it looks like those of us over 50 who are severely immune suppressed can have the 2 x dose of (non live) Shingrix from September 1st. Is this right? Please shoot me out the

BC Update with GP.
First I rang Macmillan and they thought it very odd my cancer had gone from high to low. So rang my consultants secretary and she was not there, the people in charge said they were not qualified to help. I saw my GP today and like myself had a letter with no details at the top, this matters because

These are medical tests which look for bacteria, viruses or fungi. They can be ordered for body fluids such as urine, blood or stools. Some of us with P.A. or B12 deficiency might have H.pylori or overgrowth of microorganisms in the small intestine. I had a stool test and gut microbiome tests. The microbiome

Just another pain
Since Christmas I've had a pain all around the top of my leg close to my pelvis. It's left me struggling to walk even worse than before. I don't go out because of my mobility and becoming breathless. But this has also stopped me going for investigations into a constant UTI. I told them there was no way

NHS shingles vaccine will be offered to almost one million more people
I’m not sure whether this has been mentioned already (I did check) but as I just found this recently elsewhere thought it might be of interest to those of us who have not been eligible for the vaccine yet. https://www.england.nhs.uk/2023/07/nhs-shingles-vaccine-will-be-offered-to-almost-one-million-more-people

Severe Cold, to Bronchitis; PMR has not returned
Had gotten a cold that became tenacious, as after 1 week of a head cold it progressed to my chest. A week later I had Bronchitis for the first time in my life and starting with week 3 my GP put me on a Prednisone routine of 40 mg, 30, 20, 10 over a course of 10 days. As if that wasn’t enough, she
