Shingles Vaccination
Hi folks, just been sent a link for the Shingles Vaccine, is this something anyone else has had. I wasn't aware that when taking Methotrexate this was possible. Unfortunately I can never get through to my surgery to ask the question. Thank you

Shingles vaccination - or not?
Hi all, hope to get some helpful advice on subject of shingles vaccination. Shingrix is available in my country (Norway) so I enquired of my GP about any recommendation in the light of my long-term polymyalgia (7+ years, maintained on 2.5 mg daily pred for about a year but unbelievably resistant to even

Shingles and MTX
I'm due to go visit family but brother-in-law has shingles. Normally I wouldn't worry as I have had chicken pox but the NHS in advice on taking MTX says to contact the doctor if you've been exposed to shingles (which suggests we should avoid contact with shingles patients). Has anyone been advised to

shingles
I was diagnosed with PMR 3 years ago and after a fairly bumpy ride I have now been off Prednisone for two and a half months. I have been called for a Shingles vaccination. I reacted badly to the Covid jabs each time. I have had Shingles twice! Once about 35 years ago and then for the second time

Hepatitis B
It started with yellow eyes and went south very quickly. I have had 2 weeks of hell and been very unwell. It was confirmed that I had Hep B and it really has turned my life upside down. It would be good to know others experiences.

Recovery from pneumonia
70 YO F with bronchiectasis - I developed double pneumonia 3 months ago and completed 2 weeks of IV antibiotic treatment in hospital and at home 2 months ago. Is it normal for recovery from pneumonia to wax and wane, to be "nonlinear"? I was getting better 2 weeks ago, the fatigue was starting to lift

Does asthma severity tend to reflect that of sinuses?
I wasn’t sure where to post this but please tell me if it’s out of place as I’l move it. Basically I’ve had chronic sinusitis with polyps for over a decade. It is more chronic inflammation that’s the issue, with meds the polyps are only small/secondary to the inflammation. I don’t have asthma but

pneumonia vaccination
I have been told to get my pneumonia jab , i’m not worried about sore arm, but i’m just a bit concerned i might feel poorly after. I didn’t feel poorly after my flu jab or covid booster. Any reassurance would be appreciated. Thank you.

Pain Concern
Hello Again. Has anyone had an epidural steroid injection for shingles pain? I am scheduled for one and I'm scared. I have had trigger point injections in the past, but those go into muscle where this would go to the nerves that shingles infect. This doctor is very good at what she does so I have no

EBV vaccine on the horizon
A vaccine has induced antibodies and other immune cells against the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) in mice.

Nasal / Sinus problems and Bad Smell?
I just wanted to ask about this, as had pain in the nose/cold only on the right side, (which has since gone) all round the eyes, and top of the nose, which I am guessing is Sinusitis? The odd thing is, is that all I can smell is what can only be described as 'cow sh*t' whenever I blow my nose, or sometimes

Shingles vacine
I have been offered a Shingles vacine and am Hypothyroid taking 75 m of Levo daily. Does anyone know if there are side effects because of the auto-immune disorder?

Pneumonia vaccine
Has anyone over 65 received the Pneumonia vaccine-Prevnar 20? I have ET Jak2+ and it was suggested by my GP. I read somewhere that we have to be careful with vaccines. Thank you,

COPD and Pneumonia
Hello. My mom has severe COPD and got out of the hospital last week after a 3 week stay for pneumonia. She’s had COPD for 16 years and just went on O2 about a year ago. She’s always done well with the COPD and never had an exacerbation until the pneumonia. I know it can take a very long time for the

Bad cold sore should I wait to inject Methotrexate?
I was at the dentist last Thursday - not my usual one - and she was a bit rough! She split my lip in the corner and it's came out with large cold sores which are not healing! 😔 I'm considering not injecting today to give them a better chance to heal - what do you think? They're sore and I can't eat
