Meningitis c vaccine privately for babies?
Hello, so in the newest NHS vaccine schedule all babies receive the meningitis B vaccine. However, they have postponed the men c vaccine to 1 year now. I've read about a girl getting meningitis c before her first birthday though, so she would have been protected had the vaccines still been given at 12

Long term immune system and co concentration difficulties
Hi, I am 53 and had bacterial meningitis and septecemia at age 2. I was in a coma for weeks and my mum was told to expect the worse. Growing up I caught everything going including mumps, measles and German measles, some more than once. I was a sickly child and as an adult have continued to struggle

NDT to Levothyroxine T4and T3
Hi, I am currently on 3 tablets of Thai NDT by T.R Mann. I was much better on 2 grains of Nature Throid but I just can’t afford to keep buying these expensive NDT’s. I have decided to try T4 and a small amount of T3 which works out a lot cheaper and is easier to get hold of. I treat myself as I have

Is it safe for me if my wife has the live shingles vaccine?
I'm 72 and on W&W for 5 years. My wife is 71 and has low immunities and wants to have the live shingles vaccine available here in the UK. Her nurse says that Public Health England says she can have it and I'll be safe. If she gets a rash after the vaccination, which happens sometimes, she should

Shingles vaccination
Hi, I know this has been the subject of previous posts, but, as it did not concern me at the time, I paid no attention to the replies! Anyway, yesterday I was told by a nurse in our surgery that I am now the right age for the shingles vaccination - I am 78. Are there likely to be any problems bearing

Can you get viral meningitis from mice or only bacterial meningitis?
Is it possible to get viral meningitis from mice or only bacterial meningitis? Because I got viral meningitis and my flat was full of mice and mice feces and urine and I have severe social anxiety and sometimes can go up to 6 months without seeing someone.I read somewhere on the internet that it's possible

Antibiotics - amoxicillin
Sorry, yet another question. I've recently had a tooth infection and my dentist prescribed a course of antibiotics - Amoxicillin. I'm aware that this is one of the two most effective antibiotics used for cellulitis. Should I be avoiding using them for anything other than cellulitis, or doesn't it
