‘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

I have an irregular heartbeat my heart misses the 7th beat. Should I be concerned in regard to covid-19. I also have high BP controlled.
The doctors said they were not concerned at the time because my irregular heartbeat is regularly irregular. Each year I have to have the flu jab I presumed it was to do with my blood pressure I'm told this is not the case they don't give you the flu jab for blood pressure.so I wonder if I had been given

Coronavirus Uk
Hi Can I ask all UK readers. I assumed as I have PBC I would receive a letter from my local Health Centre about the 12 week self isolation but as of yet I have not received any notification even though I recieve the flu vaccine yearly. Does PCB not fit this criteria? Thanks

Is everyone with CLL on the UK Government Vulnerable/Shielding List ?
I am 2 years into W&W and still have no symptoms. I was advised in January that it would probably be "many years" before treatment was necessary. The consultant only indicated that I should have my annual flu jab plus one for pneumonia but apart from that just advised me to carry on as normal and to

MELATONIN FOR COVID-19 / Part 1
One possible problem for moderate to severe Covid-19 patients is the potential for significant damage to the lungs and possibly other organs like the liver based on what is being seen in patients. At this point, treatment options to try and prevent, repair or ameliorate this damage is very limited and

Corona virus and us !
Hi After having a heart attack 2 years ago my cardiologist suggested I get a flu jab every year and one off anti pneumonia jab,which I did . I’ve read that a lot of people who have the virus with underlying conditions and unfortunately pass away, do so as the result of pneumonia. So am I right in thinking

Vaccines
What do you all think about vaccines? I have shunned all vaccines for years even before I was made aware I had MS. Then I thought I heard if you had ms you should not get vaccines. I was reading the mssociety web page yesterday and it says regular flu shots are not only ok but encouraged. Who knew
