Pneumonia vaccine
Has anyone over 65 received the Pneumonia vaccine-Prevnar 20? I have ET Jak2+ and it was suggested by my GP. I read somewhere that we have to be careful with vaccines. Thank you,

Meh running
I've finished Week 3 of the NRC plan to get to 10k. I did a fiddly-pace run on Saturday and a 6k run on Monday. The 6k in 43 minutes was fine, a there and back run with an extra mini-loop, but it felt as though there was plenty in the tank. Today I started Week 4 with a 30 minute "recovery" run - 4.5k

Hi all! New to the forum, what a great community and resource. I was diagnosed with PV recently at age 53 and started a Pegasys a month ago, only 45 mcg every two weeks for a slow start. No initial side effects, but 10 days ago got a sudden ear infection that hasn’t responded to antibiotics. Fullness

Quinoric side effects
Hi all, I hope you’re keeping tip top as best you can. So, I have been on hydroxychloquine for 5 years this year. I’ve mostly been given the brand Quinoric which is increasingly upsetting my tummy. I already have gastrointestinal issues from endometriosis and the Lupus meds aggravate it. I understand

FET in 4 days and nasty cold
I am so worried now, our FET is this Thursday and some nasty cold got me this weekend. I am afraid to take any cold/flu meds so it won't mess up with my lining etc 🙈 Has anyone been not well before or during transfer and it affected the outcome?

Shingles or lupus rash ?
Hello I was wondering if anybody had any insight on what this rash could be? I am prone to shingles and on prophylactic antivirals as I am primary immunocompromised with my lupus.Suffering quite a bit of stress at the moment with a poorly dog so not sure if it's just a flare of lupus or what it is?

Breathing Exercise 2: How to cough up what's not supposed to be there...
When you first stop smoking, you may feel that you have more phlegm and mucus on your chest This may cause you to feel a bit rattly and as though you need to ' cough something up'... Doesn't sound very nice, I know but this is a good sign. At the end of the day, you are only coughing up what is not

Pneumonia vax
Have been offered this oddly not the flu one as yet. Anyone had this I think it's 2 ? Any side effects? do I need to stop methotrexate? Gp surgery will do this.
