Covid
Hi all.So, I'm now on my 4th bout of covid. I am not really so surprised I'm stuck with heart problems. I guess it can only get worse. Has anyone else had covid 4 times, or at least more than once? I want to point out that I am a healthcare worker and have been vaccinated, although I don't believe

Am I at a higher risk from Covid ?
Hi, Ive seen on MPN voice and here that people with an MPN are at a higher risk from Covid. I have ET which is currently being treated with Pegasys and Aspirin. Am I classed as vulnerable? There is an option at work to have a special risk assessment if i am. I didnt ask my consultant and now wont see

Covid booster..good news story
We are all different, and respond differently to meds, vaccines, etc. I thought I'd post to say I had both my Covid booster (my 7th covid jab to date) and my flu jab on Sat. I had a slightly sore arm, and that was it. The least reaction I've had to date. BTW I was Pfizered, like in the spring. I

Having a cold whilst stimming
Hi everyone, hope you're all well. I'm on day 10 of stims and just getting over a cold. Has anyone been ill during it and still gone on to have a good number of eggs collected and the quality being good too? Does being ill have an affect? Thanks.

Covid Vax when Sick?
Does anyone know whether it's advisable to get vaccinated when you're ill with something else? For the last week I've been laid out with either a cold or allergies (leaning toward the latter based on symptoms) and I'm scheduled to get a combo covid/flu vax tomorrow. I really want to get that done ASAP

Covid Jabs
Does being hypothyroid and asthmatic qualify anyone aged 60 for a Covid jab this winter, does anyone know? Receptionist at my surgery has just told me not. Although they want me to have a flu jab! I can't figure that out at all... And what do you guys think about having one anyway? I've had three

Tattoo /steroids
My rheumatologist mentioned I might need steroid injections into my feet/toes specifically (guided by ultrasound). I have a large foot tattoo (well, I have fairly small feet but tattoo is across a fairly large proportion). She said they'd inject just beside it. I'm quite anxious about damaging my tattoo

Covid Jab. Know ur NHS NUMBER to book
I got a message from the NHS inviting me to book an appointment for my covid jab. I did it all via the NHS app & it's stress free & took all of a minute. Infact the hardest question was what accessibility needs I require at the pharmacy & they give you a list of 5 & book at your nearest one. Once you've

The more symptoms the better? Covid-19 vaccine side effects and long-term neutralizing antibody
I've just read the extensive discussion about post-vaccination side effects initiated by Sharastani "After COVID vaccination, when do āside effectsā become an āadverse reactionā?" https://healthunlocked.com/cllsupport/posts/150070059/ Having read the discussion, I feel compelled to share with you

Covid or Asthma
So I recently had Covid and tested negative on Friday, I didn't feel particularly ill throughout my week with Covid apart from complete and utter exhaustion and some ear/ sinus infection which turned out to be a nasty ear infection. I've got this nasty chesty cough and yesterday and today I've been slightly
