Flu jab? Experiences please?
Hi, I qualify now for the Flu jab. I have P AF but luckily its well under control. I'm just asking, without using a doctors appointment, what are others thoughts or experiences with it?. My thinking is, if catching flu will be in any way detrimental to the AF I should have the jab, but on the other hand

Flu jab
I've had the flu jab this year. After reading various cautionary tales and theories I thought I give it a go. Last year I caught flu in December and had a relapse with viral symptoms that lasted until April. With two children, I figured that I would get flu regardless so why not try getting vaccinated

Flu season is upon us.

No to the free flu jab!
I enquired today about having a flu jab at my doctors. They said I do not qualify for a free flu jab. I was quite concerned about this, not for the sake of £10, but for the fact that the doctors do not think having fibromyalgia is serious enough to be in the high risk category. If any of us got full

FLU VACCINE
Hi Pregnant Ladies. It is recommended that all pregnant women should have the flu vaccine, whatever stage of pregnancy they're in. This is because there is good evidence that pregnant women have an increased risk of developing complications if they get flu, particularly from the H1N1 strain (Swine

How often do you have your asthma review? I'm confused with my medication and can't access help.
My reviews are yearly but I'm finding I'm still getting to know the foibles of my condition, how it effects me and what is a serious episode. I have tried to get a doctor's appointment this morning but as I'm not needing urgent attention I can't. I've asked for an asthma review with the nurse but I can't

Doctor appointment
Went for my lung doctor appointment a few days ago I even brought my portable oxygen so I wouldn't get to much of a lecture as I haven't been using it for months. He just encouraged me to use it when I go for my walks. He also told me to walk faster, not sure why as I am not in a hurry to go anywhere

Flu Shot
I am wondering if anyone gets the Flu shot? I was originally told not to get it as it was thought that I may have had Guilliane Barre. Since being told I have FND I wonder if I should start getting the Flu shot again?

Lung pain every time I breathe in
I am perplexed in what's been going on with me recently. 2 weeks ago I had my flu shot without any trouble. That Sunday I woke up in pain thinking it was just a "flare" of fibromyalgia. The next day I had 2 very bad asthma attacks. I messaged my doctor. They set me up with an appointment the next morning

Went to the itp patient day!
Hi everyone! Well I went to the itp patient day last Friday at Hammersmith hospital. My daughter came with me as my husband was working. I found it quite interesting even if I didn't really understand a lot of the jargon about the immune system, t cells etc! I didn't learn anything about itp that I hadn't

To have the flu jab or not?
Hello, I'm new here 🤗 I'm 45 and was hospitalised in March with Pneumonia and since diagnosed with asthma. Suffer with acid reflux, recurrent sinisitus and just generally feeling rubbish. Long story but my condition may be caused by exposure to toxic mould in my work environment. Awaiting results. I've

Pneumonia Shots
When you get your annual flu shot, it is very important that you check and ensure that you have had your 2 lifetime pneumonia shots. These can be a lifesaver. Best Regards, judg69
