Is it safe for those of us suffering from inflammation skin vasculitis to have the shrinrix vaccine? My flares have really subsided in the last few months after a terrible year of skin issues which started with my 6th COVID vaccine. However been invited to have the shrinrix vaccine my heamotolgist says to have it for my CLL but not been able to ask my dermatologist if I should. Thoughts please

It is definitely recommended! I've had mine no problems.

I had my first shingrix a couple of weeks ago after I asked at Addenbrookes if it was OK. Response was why wouldn't you have it.

Not what you're looking for?
