Pneumonia Booster
Has anyone had a problem getting their pneumonia booster ? My consultant has recommended to GP but it was refused. I am 3 years into remission after 4 sessions of Rituximab and Bendamustine Chemo. Apparently I don’t meet my Health Centres criteria. !

To test for COVID or not
My son had an asthma attack at school today. He has cough variant asthma so his attacks present as a “continuous cough”. His cough stopped when they finally gave him his inhaler (half an hour later). School wants us to take him for a COVID test Or they won’t let him return. GP surgery have said he doesn

Flu Jab
What does everyone think about having a flu jab. If I take any sort of medicine it causes me problems so I am worried about having this and what effect it might have.

Study provides insight on how to build a better flu vaccine.
Flu season comes around like clockwork every year, and sooner or later everyone gets infected. The annual flu shot is a key part of public health efforts to control the flu, but the vaccine’s effectiveness is notoriously poor, falling somewhere from 40% to 60% in a typical year. A growing body of evidence

Flu jab
Many thanks for all the helpful replies, I'm resolved to have the flu jab this year as I'll never know if the jab triggered PMR and anyway I'm more at risk now especially this winter.

Should I have the flu jab
I'm 63 and new to this group. I contracted PMR 2 years ago, a few days after having the flu jab. My doctor agrees that the flu jab may have triggered PMR but there is little evidence to confirm this and his advice is to have the jab again this Autumn (I didn't have it last year) as my immune system is

Matt Hancock to bring into Law allowing Nurses and Pharmacists to give Flu Vaccine.
https://twitter.com/rcngpnforum/status/1298971404784852993?s=21 This is news to me, have Lloyd’s Pharmacy illegally been giving me the flu jab for the last three years and before that my GP’s Practice nurse?!😉

Not my finest...
First cold run, and it reminded me with a bang that I have asthma. Only managed to run for 25 minutes as a full blown attack was threatening and after gasping hopefully at my inhaler I realised that in a moment of stultifying stupidity I'd brought an empty one. Not good. I'm not going to call it a fail

confused over GFR readings
Roughly a year ago a blood test revealed my gfr as 82 with the comment stage 2 chronic kidney disease. This initially alarmed me so I googled it and was reassured that this is normal for my age (72). It also implied that it wouldn't ever get back to a higher level. A couple of weeks ago I had a routine

Flu jab early call-September!
I have been contacted already by my GP to get my annual flu jab. I have been called early because I have been shielding. I’m not complaining, just wondered if anyone else has had this conversation yet? Thank you😎

8 days PT, having a few aches and feeling cold period like symptoms
Today I’m 8 days PT, I’ve been having an achy stomach towards the afternoon and then started to feel really cold. I always feel super cold a few days before my period, I’m just hoping it’s because the weather has changed and room is actually cold. Last time my period came just before my test date during

Sweating during the night
During the last few months I'm sweating during the night. I'm waking about 3-4 am with my T-shirt completely wet. I change and after that I'm okay. I have no fever or other pneumonia symptoms. Is this other PD symptom?
