Does getting annual flu shot help fight against Covid-19?
Was wondering about this question and planning to ask my CLL and GP docs what they knew. Plus given all the HU posts on antibodies testing/protection against covid (or not) per post covid vaccine taking, has me thinking various vaccine questions. Since doc offices are closed today, I did the “no-no

Shingles vaccination
Hi I’m on 2.5mg prednisolone for PMR and have just received a text from my G.P telling me I am eligible for a Shingles Vaccine. Can anyone tell me if this is safe to have with Prednisolone. Thanks

Shingles Vaccine
I have just been offered the Shingles Vaccine and have concerns about having it as it's alive vaccine as I understand people with APS should avoid live vaccines. Has anyone had this vaccine and was there any side effects .

CLL and transformation to Richter Syndrome after having the flu vaccine
Help all, I have been reading the posts over the past few years, I’m so relieved to have found this support group. My father was diagnosed at 69 with CLL 9 years ago. He is now 78. He has never had treatment so far as his heamatologist said his numbers were not high enough. We live in Australia. He

Second AZ Covid injection
I recently had my second Astrazeneca vaccination. After the first one, there was no reaction at all, even after the yearly flu jab, I get arm swelling. The second injection was a whole different ball game. The evening of the second: Teeth chattering shivers, flu like aches, weakness that was so bad

Has anyone with RA used Blessed CBD Medical cannabis
Hello, after 2 years of treatment I stopped my Biologic Benepali last April 2021 (after 2 yrs it caused a severe, itchy, neck, chest and face rash that wouldn't go away with Betnovate and Piriton). Later in April, I had a steroid injection and my 2nd Astra Z (no after effects) On 16th June I paid £500

Hi everyone. Hope you are all doing well/better. I have come here with a question. The medications that I am on seem to have weakened my immune system and voila HPV warts have appeared on me and nothing seems to help get rid of them. I consider getting the hpv vaccine (Gardasil) which I have read might

Covid vaccination?
Hi all This is a long shot but I've just been reading about the flu vaccine on here and wondering if my latest symptoms might be down to my first Covid vaccination ( AZ) in the middle of February. I started shoulder, neck stiffness, soreness last summer but ultrasound scan has shown tears in tendons

Any side effects from flu jab?
I'm new here. Diagnosed with afib 5 months ago. Still freaking out about it. I recently had a flu jab and have had lots of headaches, palpitations and dizziness. Has anyone else had this happen? I'm on a Eliquis and blood pressure meds. I'm sensitive to beta blockers, so cardiologist doesn't want me

Dear friends, I have a ‘what would you do’ scenario that I’d really love your help with, please.
A short update for those following - When I saw my haematologist last week it was quite unpleasant, I think her impatience was due to her ridiculous workload or her frustration that she can’t really guide me. I dared not question her words or ask too many Q’s, I left it at a couple, one of them was re

Baricitinib and shingles
Hello all. I'm set to start Baricitnib next week and read that one of the side effects is shingles. As a result, I'm considering paying out of pocket for a non-live vaccine. I'm just wondering which other UK posters have done so? And if you did receive the non-live shingles vaccine, how did you go about

Guillain-Barre Syndrome
Has anyone been diagnosed with Guillain-Barre Syndrome? Were you on immunotherapy at the time? Was there any link between that and the syndrome? Before diagnosis, did you have a flu vaccine prior to the condition? I have been on Keytruda and now have been taken off as I suffered a semi paralysis episode
