Which flu jab is safe?
Good morning All, I'm scheduled for my Flu Jab this morning. Does it matter which one I receive? The live one or deactivated one. Thank you.

First cold since being immunosuppressed
Well. I wasn’t expecting this. I don’t even think this is the flu (and it’s not covid). Just a common cold and I can’t get out of bed. Any fast acting remedies? Xx

Flu jab and methotrexate
The only day I could get an appointment for flu is Tuesday 26th. I have 25mgs methotrexate weekly by injection each Tuesday anyone know if this is a problem to have both on the same day.

UPDATE ON SHOULD I HAVE THE FLU JAB
Hi Everyone Well I was still undecided on whether to have the flu jab today and in the end decided I'd go, tell them how ill I'd been and the medication I was on and see what they said and if I wasn't happy with the response I wouldn't have it done. Explained to the nurse when I got there who said to

FAQ........COLD WEATHER AND WINTER RUNNING
[i]Photo by Isaac Wendland on Unsplash[/i] We have runners from all around the world on this forum, so one runner’s hot weather is another’s cold…….and vice versa. Therefore cold is a relative matter, but if you are beginning to feel the cooler air, the following may help you prepare. Whatever you

Flu or other illnesses
Hi everyone! Maybe a daft question....does anyone find if they get poorly with something else, like flu, that it makes their endo flare up or their symptoms worse when it does? After a couple of months of much reduced pain (my lap and merina insertion was in June) I've had the worst flare up yet this

Slight cold and ablation
Good morning everyone, quick question, I’ve got my ablation tomorrow and my nose is a bit stuffed up , I don’t feel unwell , have not got a cough , slight headache but I know this is where my nose is blocked , is it safe to go ahead with the ablation. Just need reassurance that it is safe just in case

Flu Vaccination
Hi, I work in a GP surgery and we are running Saturday clinics for flu vaccinations. If any one who arrives has a cough or cold or feeling unwell, we ask them to re-book for when they are feeling better. I too have been unwell with this horrid cough and chest infection but I am on the mend now. I will

Flu jab should I go?
Hya, I've got my flu jab on Wednesday but had a really bad cold, it's eased slightly but I've practically lost my voice from coughing so much, I did a lateral flow test last night which was negative so assume its not covid. I've also got a slightly sore throat from coughing & trying to speak, I've also

Flu and covid booster
Morning everyone, I was just wondering if anyone has had their flu and covid booster together, or at least on the same day? My hubby and myself have got ours this Thursday at different times and our GPs receptionist reckons it should be ok but I’m not sure. Any advice?

In regards to all symptoms, has anyone ever been told not to "let it get the better of you" ? And is it easier said than done?
I'm having a big flare up due to having pneumonia and I keep getting told this.

Taken off Inhalers
Ok, met the new Plumo last week, have to say it didn’t go as expected. Without question I have had chronic bronchitis type symptoms now for many years and feel pretty crap most of the time. Wheeze, inability to get a deep breath, sense breathing is not good, morning cough and phlegm. My MEF25-75 is

Forecast of serious flu infections
I wonder if all this talk of a really bad epidemic of serious flu infections is real or scare mongering I’m certainly scared I thought this year we would all have a respite this winter and able to enjoy our families, now I’m looking at restricting where I’m going and back to staying in more than going

Dronederone
Hi all Two months ago I was prescribed 400mg Dronederone twice daily to slow down the frequency of AF episodes and also their duration. These were coupled with 5mg Bisoprolol and my usual Apixiban. Sunday evening at 7pm an episode started and as I write Tuesday 11am still ongoing. So it would seem this

Should I be worried about my night time oxygen levels?
Hello my newbie here. During the summer I was admitted to hospital with covid and pneumonia, I'm recovering slowly. I bought an oximeter that records and every night my oxygen drops, last night it was 80%. It is only low for a minute or two, most times less than a minute. Should I be worried? Thanks

Full of a bad cold
Hi, I have got asthma and currently I've have got a bad cold. I've had it since a week last Friday. I'm not sneezing as much as I was, but I've constantly got a stuffy runny nose that I can't seem to shift and makes it hard to breathe through my nose especially at night. I know it's just a cold but
