Shingles Vaccination concern
Has anyone had the shingles vaccination after ceasing to take steroids? I tapered to zero successfully 6 weeks ago but I still have to take 15mg of methotrexate a week (I have GCA). Because I will become ineligible by the end of the year due to my age, my doctor is anxious I have the vaccination as

BCG vaccine - now, later & side effects
I’m keen to hear about parents’ recent experiences of their newborn receiving the BCG vaccine, please - what the side effects were and whether anyone paid to get it a bit later on (and how much it cost). I’m due to give birth in the next few weeks. I’ve been told that the BCG vaccine will be offered

MEDICHECKS TEST KIT ARRIVED - which supps do I need to give up before testing and for how long?
Hi Everyone. This is my first private test and I really need to make this test count and get results which are as accurate as possible from it. I would be very grateful if members would have a look at the supps I am taking and advise which ones I need to stop before doing the test and for how long.

Flu Shot or Not?
I live in Perth, WA and we are experiencing a bad flu epidemic. I usually have a flu shot but haven’t had one since my PMR diagnosis last November after reading on this forum that some people thought the flu shot may have been a PMR trigger. Appreciate any thoughts and comments.

Waiting to do next set of liver enzyme tests, obsessing about everything!
New to this group and want to thank all of you who contribute your stories, it’s been eye opening to say the least. I will do my next round of liver enzyme tests next week, which will be 3.5 weeks since the first tests. I will be traveling for 1 month shortly thereafter, that is why it wasn’t scheduled

Energenesis
Here is a new supplement which has most of everything that isn’t a vitamin or mineral in it. Expensive but maybe convenient if you want to try all these things at once? https://www.theenergyblueprint.com/energenesis “Energenesis is like a 5-star MEAL for your Mitochondria (LOADED with rare nutrients

New shingles vaccine
Everyone being treated for Prostate Cancer should consider getting the newer shingles vaccine. Given in two shots a couple of months apart, it is 90% effective compared to 50% for the old vaccine. Shingles can be very painful and debilitating and you should ask you PCP to arrange for the shots. I am

Post Hysterectomy Thyroid Woes
Hi all. I would truly appreciate any advice you can offer before my next doctor visit in 2 days time. After years of unsuccessfully controlling debilitating cramps and severe bloodloss, I finally relented to having a hysterectomy on Feb 13th 2019. I kept both ovaries, but after a 5 day stay in hospital

Shingles shots and PCa meds?
I'm on Lupron/Zytiga/Prednisone and soon on Xgeva. Has anyone been aware of any interactions between these meds and the new shingles vaccine? I will see my MO later this month but, as we all know, they don't know everything.
