Flu Jab Text
Hubby was sent a text which recommends the flu jab. It has a long link for further reading which looks to me like a twitter link - and as his phone isn't a smart phone (he is BLIND!), what exactly is he supposed to do?

Amantadine for…
"Amantadine is an antiviral medicine that blocks the actions of viruses in your body. Amantadine is used to treat or prevent influenza A in adults and children. Amantadine may not be effective during every flu season because certain strains of the virus may be resistant to this medicine. Amantadine

Happy Day!
A few weeks ago I had my annual appointment (an on-line one this time) with my EP, Dr. Rodney Horton at TCAI in Austin. He told me that my chance of my Afib being fixed are statistically 96 percent. I do not need to follow up with him unless my heart decides to act up again. I am thrilled as it has been

TMEP & Flu Vaccination
Hi there, I have just been diagnosed with TMEP and am looking to get a flu vaccination this year. I don’t qualify for vaccination under the NHS. Last year I had it done at Tesco Pharmacy and had a large allergic reaction. I wondered if anyone else with a mast cell condition had a similar reaction

Slowing down a 'helper' cell may someday make vaccines more effective for seniors.
Many people have understood that our immune systems get weaker as we age, which in part explains why older people often get less protection than younger ones from annual influenza vaccines. Now a team of scientists led by experts at Cincinnati Children's have taken a deeper look at how the immune system

Another Taurine Question - Is it a stimulant?
The amino acid Taurine is promoted as a useful supplement for heart rhythm problems. Many sources also state that Taurine is a relaxant, and can even be used as sleep aid before bed because it increases GABA in the brain. Yet it is also included in energy drinks like Red Bull, which does not make sense

Taurine Question
I just bought some powdered Taurine. I figured why consume more capsules than necessary each day. The instructions say to take it on an empty stomach (dissolved in water, I assume). I thought all vitamins and minerals and supplements were better absorbed with food. Anybody else taking their Taurine on

Time gap between Pneumonia & Influenza vaccines and Denosumab Injection. Is Denosumab & Zoledronic acid do harm to dental implantation.
Can my mother take Pneumonia vaccine (Pneumovax 23) and Influenza vaccine (Influgen 0.5 ml) seven days before taking Denosumab (Olimab - product of India) injection. She is taking this injection twice in a year i.e on 1st March and 1st September every year. My second question is should my mother go

Flu jabs
I'm trying to find out about the interactions between those who are immuno-suppressed and recipients of of live flu jabs. Is there a time limit on contact? I'm planning to get one - though I haven't in previous years - and my grandson, going into Year 7 will presumably get one at school. I've seen

Flu Vaccine
Hi all, I’ve seen the (UK) government have expanded their flu vaccine programme for this coming winter. I was wondering if having an MPN would put me in an eligible household. Can I ask if other group members receive/intend to receive the vaccination? Thanks in advance 🙂

Flu Vaccination
Has the coronavirus pandemic made you more likely to get the flu vaccine later this year? It might be July but we’re already beginning to think about this year’s flu vaccination programme. You may be wondering if the flu vaccine will still be important for people with asthma this year and the answer

How on Earth will they manage Flu injections in the UK?
Discussed this with a few people recently. The flu jab programme in surgeries has been a cause of much irritation over the last few years. Some practices have sessions where you just turn up, others have allocated times for people depending on your surname. My surgery has tried both with varying degrees

Is there any updated advice regarding Covid-19 for Lymphoedema patients?
Hi I just wondered if there was any updated medical advice for Lymphoedema patients? Now restrictions are easing up I’m finding that I am unsure what advice I should be following. Initially it was easy as anyone who received the flu jab was vulnerable, anyone who got a letter was extremely vulnerable

Going for a Walk
Hi all, Basically querying about going for walks. Although I received the shielding letter, my consultant confirmed it was only because I get the flu jab and everyone in Wales who has will get the letter regardless. I fall into the 2nd category on BSR, as only on methotrexate injections 12.5mg (I haven't

‘Flu vaccine
I rang my GP to ask if I should get the ‘flu jab - and get a script for it as I do every year - this year because of my recently diagnosed PMF I qualify for free vaccine! Part of me still rebels being labelled as having a ‘chronic illness’ or having ‘reduced immunity’ - part of me says ‘Thanks very much

The vaccine we’re testing in Australia is based on a flu shot. Here’s how it could work against coronavirus.
A new trial has begun in Victoria this week to evaluate a potential vaccine against COVID-19. The vaccine is called NVX-CoV2373 and is from a US biotech company, Novavax. The trial will be carried out across Melbourne and Brisbane, and is the first human trial of a vaccine specifically for COVID-19
