FLU JABS ARE OUT
Don't you nice people forget to get your flu vaccine rumour has it this year's flu is going to be on par with the 1918 Spanish flu that killed more than WW1 what they do not say is in those dark days we had no flu jab, no antibiotics yet only two million died.

Flu Jab?
Has anyone had the flu jab at their Rheumy clinic at hospital? I'm seeing my Lupus nurse tomorrow but can't get the egg free jab at my GP's. Just wondered if anyone else has got theirs at hospital for any reason or also needed the egg free one.

Flu vaccine suitable for CLL WW with egg allergy
Hi folks, Could anyone recommend a flu vaccine for me (available in U.K.) I'm on wait and watch for 4 years as I have a egg allergy so can't have the standard vaccine. My GP practice nurse last year was very unhelpful last year, telling me there wasn't one available so I went without. Fortunately

Flu jab
I have another dilemma now. My family think I should have flu jab as I am now 73. I had it for the first time last year and felt under the weather for 6 months. I have found a chemist which has a jab with no mercury but don't know whether to have it or not. My Daughter is quite concerned as they are

Scary increase in BP
Hi My partner, like me, has high BP (his is worse than mine) He is on 10mg ramapril daily and it is still a tad too high as a rule. In the last week it has shot up to around 180/110. This worries me a lot more than him! I have just remembered that about a week ago he had his annual flu vaccination

Flu jab
I've not had a flu jab for the last 11 years! I was asked what date I had it! And to let them know! I'm on warfarin for a PE and blood clot in my right leg, should I have it? Any advice please.

Flu Jabs
Hi My GP surgery has recommended that I have a flu jab. I had one many many years ago and felt quite ill after it so a bit anxious about having one. However, as I am having so much trouble at the moment shaking off a common cold, I am worried about getting flu over the winter. Has anyone had the flu

Flu Jab - Yes or No.
Hi everyone, I'm due to have my Flu Jab in a couple of weeks time like everyone out there I imagine - what is the general feeling about it? Last year was the first year I had it, and to be honest I vowed never again. I was so ill with a really heavy cold/flu, and it took weeks and weeks to get rid of

Hydroxycarbamide and Flu Vaccine
Hi everyone, I have just started taking Hydroxycarbamide and am into the sixth week (500mg three times a week) of treatment. I have been told that I can have the flu vaccination whilst taking Hydroxycarbamide but I am unsure as to whether I can have the vaccination so early on in my treatment. Any

Thanks for replies
To all who replied to my earlier post 'bad stomach...statins' I took your advice and was seen by the nurse practioner at 6 pm(how's that for service!) she said I'm really bloated and sore. Blood pressure high. Told me to stop the statins and prescribed ranitidine and cocodomol. See how I go. Oh, and

The Blackness Descends
As it gets darker earlier my blackness hits earlier each evening, though evenings have tended to be better for me :-/ Today hasn't been too bad, had my flu jab, but not sure how much longer I can fight this. Carers tomorrow, couldn't let her find me. Hoarding project person Thursday, with meeting in

Whopping cough vaccine
Hi I have just found out I'm pregnant and the midwife doesn't have a clue if I can have the shopping cough vaccine as i had Gillian Barre syndrome last year she's never heard of it which doesn't surprise me as it's a rare auto immune disease . I'm still waiting for a letter from the consultant after

Flu Jab... yes or no?
Welcoming comments, as usual. I understand this is subjective and that one has to decide what to do but a few ideas would be welcome. Because i have RA and other autoimmune diseases my immune system is fairly low but it is further depressed by the biologocal drug I inject weekly (Enbrel), so my rheumatologist

Asthma investigations
I am supposed to be starting a new job this week. But may have to delay it for a week, if my new employer will wait that long as it's in a call centre. To explain, I have had a cough day and night now for about 5 weeks now, and even with using my fostair the doctor doesn't think it's properly controlled
