Sorry if this doesn't make sense..new here and sound great in my head . Just had my Flu vaccine, there are two apparently....who knew . Given my age 62.. had the younger one I have queried given the the older one had ingredient for better immune response. Given I have GPA and treated with Methotrexate and Steroids wouldn't the older one make more sense. Should that one have been given ?

As far as I know there is no approved policy for giving the enhanced one to younger immunosuppressed people. Which is a bit of a shame. A hospital consultant might be able to arrange for it to be done. But it’s not normal, and you got the usually given one in your circumstances.
