Hi all question for the medics as with 3 sick kids i haven't the brainpower to look for myself today.
I can't have the flu jab as anaphylactic to egg.
Its been suggested I have the pneumovax after a blood test. Is this banned for the egg allergic too?
Marmite
From the BNF....
Hypersensitivity to egg with evidence of previous anaphylactic reaction, contra-indicates influenza vaccine, tick-borne encephalitis vaccine, and yellow fever vaccine. Some viral vaccines contain small quantities of antibacterials; such vaccines may need to be withheld from individuals who are extremely sensitive to the antibacterial. Other excipients in vaccines may also rarely cause allergic reactions.
Snipped from the BNF - Pneumovax is safe for eggy allergic peeps..
Thank you
Guess can make the appointment now without wasting dr and nurses time and without having to battle through the evil receptionist to get that question answered first!

Predisolone and cataracts
What would you say to her?
