Peg Interferon and flu jab
Hi All, I was offered the flu jab this year and decided I wanted to have it. However, now I’m wondering whether it’s ok to get it with Interferon. The leaflet of Interferon states that live vaccinations should not be given with the medication and I believe the flu vaccine isn’t live? I haven’t had any

I am getting a persistent cough
Is it always really bad or can a person have a cough with RA that is not too serious or destructive to the lungs. I have had a cough for about 8 months. I am worried I might have interstitial lung disease due to RA.

Flu jab
I’ve just had a txt stating my flu vaccination is available on Oct 3rd at the local surgery who won’t normally see anyone face to face……..Does anyone know if they are combining it with the Covid booster this year?……I’m reluctant to have it this year due to anxiety levels being through the roof

Does anyone have experience of lung problems as a symptom of GCA?
I have had PMR for three years, and am almost off Prednisolone with no return of the original pre-diagnosis symptoms. I have been in hospital twice since the end of July with ‘community acquired pneumonia’ ….tho I have never had any chest/breathing problems/weakness in my life and am still very careful

Flu vaccination
Is it ok to have the normal flu jab whilst taking Warfarin? I was reading yesterday that if you are taking Warfarin you should have a "deep subcutaneous" vaccination to prevent bleeding. I am booked for a normal one so bit concerned. Help please!

Anyone had Covid booster & flu vacciination at same time?
Wondering if anyone has had the Covid Booster & Flu vaccination at the same time? I am thinking perhaps better not to do so. Also was a different Covid vaccine given for the booster dose? Any adverse effects? Many thanks in advance for all replies.

Flu shot
Just wondered if anyone had received notification of their flu jab? I received a letter today to say mine is tomorrow morning at 8.45 am - there's no mention of the Cover booster shot as well, so I expect that's not happening, tomorrow at least.

Coughing Fits
Hello I'm in a bit of unchartered territory at the moment so would really appreciate some advice from fellow sufferers who may have more experience dealing with it. I was diagnosed with asthma as a baby and had it throughout childhood. When I reached my teens it vastly improved to the point I didn't

Flu jab
Just wanted to say be careful with Flu jab ahead of blood tests . I wasn’t aware can actually cause a dip . My counts are always precarious as I have ITP , had test 3days after jab, and now my Olaparib has been stopped for a week🤬🤬. Sorry am talking platelets here in case not clear !

Sinusitis link to asthma
Hi, just wondering do many people on here suffer with periodic sinusitis also. I've been ill lately (got a negative PCR Covid result) with a lot of congested airways (initially nose, now feel mucus at back of throat), fatigue and very sore throat. Didn't visit my GP in the end as they wouldn't see me

Update on just when you think things could not get any worse
My husband crashed this afternoon while I was there. They got him back and he on the way to St Thomas’s his kidney has started to fail. He has pneumonia. I am cross at the moment because if he been treated with antibiotics sooner none of this would have happened x

Is it wise to have flu jab and covid booster vaccination together?
Have been invited by GP to have flu jab and In the letter it says ‘’may also be offered a covid booster at the same time’’ Personally I’m against having both together. Not sure why!!! But anxiety could be the main reason. My head is telling me it’s not safe. Looking for some advice from the knowledgeable
