Absolutely Fed up!
Hi all I'm so fed up with my lack of medical care. I've worked at home, shielded, since lockdown. I've had to do things differently, it's been hard but we've managed. I support schools in my role so you can imagine it's been busy. So why can't either my GP or rheumatology do the same? I appreciate it

Has anyone with MS had the shingles vaccine?
My sister recently got the Shingles even though she had the new vaccine. Her physician told her that if she had not received it (The vaccine) the Shingles would have been quite bad. I am thinking of getting the vaccine but have MS.

No flu jab for me!
Went this morning to my pharmacy to get vaccinated against flu. I've never had a flu jab before and all my allergies were checked, taking up most of the space on the form but was stymied when it came to latex allergy. Pharmacist said he couldn't take the risk, - although NHS says it's negligible -

Has anyone had an increase in migraines after getting the flu shot?
I read that someone did, but I’m thinking it could have been caused by something else unless there are more people that have experienced this. Thank you.

Flu vaccination
I have been vaccinated against flue several times and always responded to it with flu or cold like symptoms. My husband, who has no Asthma felt very unwell for about 14 days after his vaccination. I now have not been vaccinated for a few years. I have read everything on this site about Asthma and vaccination

Husband’s vm
My husband’s first trip to the ER was on July 15, 2020 and was diagnosed July 28 with aseptic meningitis. He’s still recovering without many answers. Now his adult son was diagnosed August 28. They had worked together right before my husband’s first trip to the ER. We don’t know the cause of this besides

Until a coronavirus vaccine is ready, pneumonia vaccines may reduce deaths from COVID-19
« There are two commonly given vaccines – the pneumococcal vaccine and the Hib vaccine – that protect against bacterial pneumonias. These bacteria complicate both influenza and COVID-19, often leading to death. My examination of disease trends and vaccination rates leads me to believe that broader use

Rivaroxaban a nd flu jab
My annual flu jab comes tomorrow but my wife beat me by a day for hers. Before injection, she was asked if she took any blood thinners and replied no. Got me wondering, as I take a daily dose (10mg) of Rivaroxaban. Might that mean I am excused the jab when I turn up? Would be mightily upset if that

Untreated sleep apnea is associated with flu hospitalization.
As we approach flu season, adults with obstructive sleep apnea may want to take extra precautions. A study published online as an accepted paper in the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine is the first to find that patients with sleep apnea who did not use CPAP therapy were more likely to be hospitalized
