Covid and flu vaccines
I unexpectedly had Covid and flu vaccinations today whilst at the doctor's for something else. Was putting it off but glad it's done now. Today is the day I usually inject my MTX and one nurse said give it a miss this week whilst another said to do it as normal. I decided to give it a miss. Is there

Covid recovery
Hi, I tested positive on 15th December and was positive for 14 days. It attacked my lungs this time and was bad. From day 1 I was prescribed steroids and a 2 week course of Docyciclyne to take alongside my nebuliser. I’m now on my third course of steroids and my peak flow is still only about 310. Heart

Immunocompromised behavior
i am 82 and heading in May into my last infusion for microscopic polyangiitis. I am fully vaccinated for flu, covid, and RSV. I am reluctant to let people into the house for any extended time if I don’t know their vaccine status, as I am immunocompromised. Am I being paranoid about this…??How do others

Theoretical question regarding COVID vaccine and treatment of transient hypothyroidism.
I’ve been looking into the possible causes of my hypothyroidism and there are many research papers on Covid
vaccination
causing transient thyroiditis.

Maglyn
I reside in the UK and was diagnosed with Afib in early October and had a mild heart attack, in hospital for five days and given flecainide (50mg twice daily), apixaban (5mg twice daily), statins (40mg once daily) Losartan 5mg (once daily). I have always been intolerant to a lot of medication and vaccinations

Trudging along, but inspired by another postcard 😊
Still plodding along, but at least I'm still moving 😁 74% complete and I have a great incentive this month as I'm raising money for Wales Air Ambulance by walking 10 miles during January. Still stuffy, breathless, coughing like a drain, and fatigued, but it will go in time as it always does eventually

On Venetoclax, lymph node appeared
Trying not to worry but a lymph node in my armpit swelled up. I feel fine, no colds, fevers or recent vaccinations. Even did a Covid test because I have had Covid totally asymptomatic but negative. Has anyone have this happen and it turned out to be nothing. Hoping this is just a fluke but it seems

Vaccinations
I have Churg Strauss (EGPA) treated with methotrexate and steroids, and have been invited for Phnumonia and Shingles vaccinations. Are they safe/sensible to have?

Herpes Zoster vaccination OK for me?
I've been recommended by the health board to have the Herpes Zoster
vaccination
prior to starting the biologic jabs. I recall that Zostavax , because it is a live vaccine, is not recommended, but Shingrix is OK. Is Zostavax the same as the Herpes Zoster? I would be grateful for advice. Thank you.

dengue fever vaccinate or not?
I started off on 15mg Pred in October and am now down to 10mg. I am off to India (Rajasthan) in February and dengue fever vaccine has been suggested. As it is a live vaccine I am not sure whether having the vaccine is worth the risk of contracting dengue. Any advice? Also big thanks to the community

Shingles vaccination
Have any of you under 70 year olds in the UK managed to get a shingles
vaccination
. Two people I know have suffered shingles in the eye, head, face recently. Very unpleasant and painful several weeks later.

Covid
Just recovering from a very nasty covid bout - my first. I'm a pretty healthy, active 76 year old with no medical issues other than PV. I don't need to take any prescription medicines other than HU, and otherwise take only aspirin and vitamins. Nevertheless, I was seriously sick for 2 weeks with all

Am I immunosuppressed on 2mg pred?
I’ve just had my third letter from the NHS inviting me to book a Covid
vaccination
- which I’d happily do, but at 72 (nearly 73) years old I’m under 75, and I’m pretty sure my pred dosage is too low. This time last year I was nearly turned away on 3mg.

When life gives you lemons...
So after a few horrendous years of infertility and another IVF failure pre-Christmas, my husband had a chat with me and said I need to stop "hiding away" and need to start socialising again and getting a bit of the "old me", the "pre-infertility me", the "pre-IVF me" back. I realised he was right. I've

Covid jab during a diverticulitis flare with some PMR stiffness.
Would it be sensible to postpone the
vaccination
? haven’t experienced ill effects from my previous vaccines. I have been waiting a few weeks for this jab. Could Pred sick day rules dosing help. I am slow tapering to 4.5 mgs from 5 mgs.
