Underlying Autoimmune Condition? Immunosuppressed, on Immunosuppressants / Chemotherapy? Avoid Contact With Recipients of Nasal Flu Vaccine.
Hi All Not quite on topic but perhaps relevant to those who may have additional autoimmune conditions or other health issues, so here goes... The nasal flu vaccine contains live forms of flu virus which have been weakened (attenuated) and whilst not dangerous to those in good health, the vaccine may

Hypothyroidism after flu jab
I was recommended to have my first ever flu jab this autumn as I had open heart surgery to repair a heart valve in May this year. I recovered really well from the heart op ( I am a healthy 53 yr old) and was really getting my energy back until I had the flu jab in Oct. Within a month I had put on 4

POST-FLAIR RECOVERY
Our son and daughter-in=law came to visit in late October and both were just getting over upper respiratory infections, then my husband got a flu shot and of course got the flu, so naturally I ended up catching it, too.

Recovery 5k run...made a few mistakes 🤔
After the achievement of the 10k on Saturday, I planned to do some other stuff this week, starting with an easy 5k recovery run today. The trouble was, I'd been itching to have a go at the C25K+ speed podcast, so I listened to it yesterday to get a gist of what it entailed. The slow pace is 150, and

Flu Jab
Hi. Just wondering if anyone has been refused a flu jab this year despite always having one previously? My daughter has asthma and had heart surgery as a baby. She recently moved to Hampshire but previously lived in Wales, Worcestershire and Gloucestershire. All previous doctors have given her a flu

Flu jab with hashimotos
So I took my time this year trying to decide if to have the flu jab as it's recommended for asthma but not so much for hashimotos. I had it yesterday and have been very ill since, extreme vertigo, sore throat, lumps in mouth and what I can only describe as a hot tingling through my body. Has anyone else

Prognosis MPA Vasculitis
Hi. I am new here. I was diagnosed in June 2017. I was wondering what is the life expectancy for MPA ( microscopic polyangitis). I keep seeing references to 2 years and 5 years. Is that all that is expected ? Also since my flu jab last week I have been extremely tired and unable to use my excercise bike

Flu jab & PAF
I was diagnosed with PAF 16 years ago, but with a cocktail of drugs including Warfarin and arrhythmia drugs have been in rhythm for the past 10 years until I received my first flu injection yesterday and ten hours later I was in AF, which I still am. Told by medical staff it might go back into rhythm

New here, but not new to AF and ectopic beats.
Hi folks, I’m new here, but am not new to AF. My AF began, I believe, when I was diagnosed with Graves’ Disease (hyperthyroidism) in 2004 treated with Atenolol (to bring the associated tachycardia under control) until the Carbimozole brought my thyroxine levels down. The Carbimozole dose was gradually
