Wife getting MMR vaccine booster - isolate or not?
I'm an SLL patient, 55 years old, now about 2.5 years into remission after 6 FCR treatments. I just recovered from a recent (and thankfully mild) bout of shingles. My shingles was so mild that my GP wasn't convinced it actually was shingles! She had me tested for herpes zoster antibodies, and for good

Yearly flu jab
Presume people who are on immunosuppressants have taken the yearly flu jab and it has been largely uneventful?

Update on shingles vaccine
I said I would let you know how I went on with the shingles vaccine. I had the vaccine two weeks ago tomorrow. I had a lovely nurse who was very friendly so I felt I could chat to her. I wanted to confirm that I was having the non live vaccine and she said yes, I'll go and get it out of the fridge. When

My Bladder Cancer Update.
My latest flexy cystoscopy showed I had no tumour in my bladder, backing up what was said in Autumn 2023 and that was a complete turn-around. Seems my BCG has worked in as far as there si no tumour growth. I still have cancer cells because I have cancer in situ (CIS) but at moment is low grade. So

Wednesday The 14th.
I promised a painting for the 14 and being a heart shape canvas I could not use the easel. I ruined the picture with my sleeve going in paint on palate and it got onto painting - Ruined. I have done one not as good by painting the canvas black, and painted a picture ok for black canvas, Could not

Shingles vaccination and PCa progression?
Hi everyone, I am planning to get Shingles vaccine, but afraid from the consequences. Gleason score 9 (4+5) Radical Prostatectomy 2017 > BCR 2019 SRT 8 weeks + Firmagon 6 injections (over 6 months). G 9 recurrence is inevitable (as we all know) so I am scared to take the Shingles vaccine. Any one

What s happening in our NHS ?- All the shortages.
Two examples - I take Amiodarone for AF and other fast heart beats, I have had to have my prescription sent to another village, and they are running short. Glandosane synthetic saliva spray - Dry mouth is dross to put it mildly. no pharmacy near where I live has any. Not just the the BCG treatment

Shingrix vaccine
I am on Ibrance and letrozole, my primary has suggested I get the shingles (shingrix) vaccine. I will be speaking to my oncologist later this week. In the mean time I wondered if any of you ladies have had the vaccine, and did you have side effects. Years ago my husband had shingles vaccine & ended up

another cover booster
Hi i am a bit worried about having my 5th booster for covid on 22nd /6/23 because my consultant said something happened last November to make my c.k.d. worse . the only thing that changed was my cover and flu jab. He said he couldn't for sure say it wasn't the cover booster that caused it but he feels

A Bladder Cancer Update.
I got a telephone call early this morning, I was still in bed. Was a woman offering me a place in a Private Hospital for A 'FLEXY CYSTOSCOPY' Good news but the hospital was miles away in Preston, in fact the other side. So I asked her could I not get in at my local hospital - She then started talking

Shingles Vaccine
I am 73 and have been invited for a shingles vaccination. I have PMR and Hashimotos thyroiditis and have had severe reactions to previous Covid jabs such that my consultant advised me not to have any further boosters. Does anyone have any advice or experience to share regarding the Shingles jab? I know

BC Update with GP.
First I rang Macmillan and they thought it very odd my cancer had gone from high to low. So rang my consultants secretary and she was not there, the people in charge said they were not qualified to help. I saw my GP today and like myself had a letter with no details at the top, this matters because

Shingles Vaccine
I am going for a shingles vaccination on 29th June. I know there has been information about it on here before but I can't find it. I know I need the Shingrix vaccine and believe that you need a 2nd one 2 months later. I would like to hear about your experiences of Shingrix. . Of course, I have googled

Sanofi vaccine and shark liver oil
I don’t think this has been posted before but the fact Sanofi is for over 75s makes sense if the shark oil is an immune booster and apparently is also given in the flu vaccine for the over 75s. I wonder if those with fish allergies/vegans were aware, but thinking people have probably had it and been

My Cancer and other health issues update.
After months of pretty bad news over my bladder cancer which is high grade and had spread to the inner linings of my bladder. I was told I could not have BCG anymore and that was gloomy news. I have an appointment tomorrow for a new three bladder cancer BCG Treatment. I was surprised I was having

Measles resurgence: Is it a cause for concern?
Recent headlines have highlighted concerns of a resurgence in measles cases across the UK and especially in London. We asked our paediatric medical advisor, Dr Gavin Cleary, Consultant Rheumatologist at Alder Hey Children’s Hospital, whether parents/carers of a child with JIA should be concerned or taking

Besremi and vaccines
Hi, I need to get a Tdap (tetanus, diphtheria, and whooping cough) vaccine as my daughter just had a baby. To date, I've had no issues with many COVID vaccines, the flu or shingles, but EPGuy mentioned a concern with Besremi and the flu vaccine and his reaction. Anyone had any issues with vaccines
