Flu vaccine
Hello friends, I finished 6 rounds of FCR in March. I was so disappointed to discover last month that my white cell count and neuts were lower than when I was going through chemo. Had bloods checked last week and still the same. I've just returned to work at a school but am nervous now I've heard all

Before 11am - Flu jab reminder
Hi all, I've just received a txt from GP surgery re flu jab walk in clinics so thought I'd remind everyone to aim to have jab before 11am for maximum efficacy. The earlier the better I'd say!

Shingles vaccine (Zostavax)?
I had a routine visit with my PCP yesterday. She recommended I get Zostavax 2 mos. before considering Ocrevus or any of the other newer meds. Yrs. ago, my neuro recommended against Zostavax because it's a live attenuated vaccine. I believe NMSS or MSSA now say it's up to you and your doc. I wondered

Did my Hashimoto start after this hardship/trauma?
I know this sounds absurd, How do I know when my body started producing thyroid antibodies? I know that Summer 2015 was stressful and traumatic, someone emotionally hurt me, that was the worst betrayal in my life because I felt I was being used and taken as stupid. Anyway, you don't want to read my horrible

Sickle Cell Thalassemia & Shingles
Has anyone had the
Shingles
vaccine
, and if so did you experience any crisis as a result? What if at all has been any medical advice concerning having the vaccine, or advice in taking the risk to not receive the vaccine? I am very concerned about taking either route, it's lie a catch 22.

I take MTX and Hydroxychloroquine. I had an initial Depo-Medrone jab to help until the drugs kicked in. All was well until I had a bad
