Should I get MMR vaccine?
Hi, I take a preventer (flutiform) every day and night and blue one for emergencies. I generally get 2-3 infections a year which require either hospital visit or nebuliser with course of antibiotics and oral steroids. Being in my 40’s I don’t believe I ever got the Mmr shot and measles seems to be

The FM/a test....I got my results.
I got the results of my FM/a blood test. I called and although they have mailed me and my doctor the results the lady in the lab gave them to me verbally over the phone. With 50-100 being indicative of fibro my score was 96. I knew I was pretty messed up, and I guess I am. The lady asked me "how

Natural Checkpoint Inhibitors?
Any decent research out there on "natural" checkpoint inhibitors? I am guessing they exist. Perhaps IP-6 or Curcumin is a "checkpoint " inhibitor? Also wondering if there is I any respectable research on 4-MU which apparently is used quite a bit in Europe. I am also curious about BCG vaccine. My father

Hepatitis B vaccine before Ocrevus?
Anyone have to get a Hepatitis B vaccine prior to starting Ocrevus? I was asked to get the vaccine (which is actually a total of three doses; get the first two doses now) before starting O.

Flu vaccine
The time for flu vaccination will be hear soon. Last year's vaccine was not much of a success. The choice this year seems to be the triple vaccine with a booster for the over 65s or the quad vaccine without booster for those under 65. I have Lupus antiphospholipid Syndrome and sjogrins. I am over 65

I have had ET for 12 years + and am currently on a fairly high dose of Hydrea. I live in Australia but each year travel to the UK for several months. After having stable platelets for several months prior to my flight, I find they shoot up quite considerably when I have my blood tested in the UK. I

APS and pneumoccal vaccine any pros/cons?
I have a flu vaccination every year. I have APS diagnosed in 2016. This year my GP has suggested I have the Pneumococcal vaccine. Anybody have any views regarding this vaccine.

I've applied for the FM/a blood test.
Thanks to another member of this forum who posted information about the BCG tuberculosis vaccine clinical trials coming up I was able to research the FM/a test so I decided to apply for it online. The BCG theory sounds very promising to me. My daughter had sent me an email years ago with her theory

Beware of Shingles (Shingrix) vaccine!
I had an appointment with my Rheumatologist a couple of weeks ago and she advised me to have a Shingles vaccine. She said the new one is ok for people with Lupus. My brother in law had recently had Shingles and it was terrible for him so I thought, ok, I'll do it. Now, 2 weeks later, I am pretty sure

Difficulty getting diagnosed
Hello. This is my first post since joining. I have only been ill for a few weeks, an illness that seems to have come out of the blue. But maybe not when I look back. I will outline my problems in the hope that others have experienced a similar story and in the hope that they can give me some support

Please recommend slecialists on meningitis
Hi again! I’m from Russia, and I think I have a subacute or chronic meningitis, probably viral. Here doctors apparently have low expertise because they just dismiss my concerns and don’t help. I have 37.4 fever, don’t have appetite and I have a head ache and neck ache. I feel that I need to urgently

Unbelievable
I truly believe googling has gotten me to this point, after getting a flu shot I started to feel bad then I’d google how the shot could affect me. Shortly afterwards I had days of not feeling well then I went to the Er & was told acid reflux, went back the very next night & the doc was confused to why

Reoccurrence despite mitomycin
Hi everyone I’m sorry to say my recent cystoscopy revealed two tiny tumours. It would have been two years clear so I was devastated. I know this tends to come back but we all hope it’s not going to. Next turbt (#5) is in two weeks. Anyone have something similar happen? I’d been on mitomycin monthly
