Consultation with Haematologist Today
Just had my yearly telephone consultation with my haematologist. My bloods are stable over the past year. Yippee! He's made an appointment for August 2022. He did make some startling claims however: 1. You can get a live shingles vaccine if you are not having treatment. 2. Your reaction to covid vaccination

Covid Vaccine with Vanishing Twin?
I am due to have my first Covid vaccine today and am having a last minute panic due to the fact that I have a demised twin. I lost Twin B at 8 weeks and, at our 16 week scan, it was still there. I am 18 weeks now and have been told that the demised twin will be reabsorbed by both my body and our remaining

Any issues with Covid vaccination and AF
I’m having a phizer Covid vaccine on Monday (I know it’s late but Japan is way behind) and wondered if any fibbers had issue with it. The regular flu vaccine sometimes makes me skip a few beats but was wondering if the vaccine for covid has triggered anyone?

Shingles vaccine
People in the uk, don't shoot me. Instead, lobby the nhs to cover the Shingrix vaccine which is over 90% effective, and much more effective in older people than Zostavax. Also because it is not a live vaccine it is more appropriate for people on immune suppressing medication. If in the US you can

Has anyone been offered the Pneumococcal vaccine?
Just had a call from my GP surgery offering me this vaccine saying that I qualified for this due to my medications. I’ve asked for more information so will await a call from the nurse but wondered if anyone knew anything about it? Not sure I want any more vaccines at the moment!

Covid Vaccine. Second or third trimester?
I wanted to postpone the vaccine until the third trimester. But now, with the change of the mask mandate in the UK, it might have to anticipate it. I am scared though. Did anyone have bad experiences taking the vaccine in the second trimester? (Even the NHS flu vaccine is only received at 28 weeks..)

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 .

Very Anxious about COVID Vaccine
Hello, everyone. I scheduled my first dose of the COVID vaccine for next Friday. I am very anxious about this because I had an adverse reaction to the flu shot. I had to be allergy tested for the COVID vaccine and I am not allergic to it. That is the good news. I know I need to go into this with a positive
