B12 self injection
So we ordered some panpharma b12 injections which arrived yesterday. My partner has a b12 level of 123 with neurological symtoms and gp refuses to treat. I just got my results from my b12 test result last week a level of 202 which gp said was normal. Maybe this was abit stupid but as I have symptoms

Flu season here!
Hello folks, I'm interested to know if long term ME sufferers end up with a totally weird immunity. I'm in my early 70's, developed ME following viral pneumonia in my 30's, then over a decade later discovered I also had Hashimoto's thyroiditis (am on thyroxine).I've managed to dodge Covid even though

Shingles vaccine
My wife was refused the shingles vaccine by her GP as she wasn't old enough (not over 70) we asked for it a year after she had shingles which she really suffered from and still has a bit of discomfort from. Has any MPN patients been refused because of their age?

My Condition and OP - Update.
Hello all. Was having a lie-in this morning - The phone rang and it was the urology waiting list people. I was informed my op to see if the BCG treatment had worked or not, is scheduled for the 8th of October. I doubt very much the BCG will have worked - I think my urology/oncology nurse thinks

Is it safe to have another Covid vaccination?
A month after having my 4th Covid vaccination & a flu jab in September ‘22 I was diagnosed with PMR - coincidence probably? Anyway, I’ve received my invite for a 5th Covid jab ‘as my immune system is compromised’. As this would be my first vaccination since being diagnosed I would be interested to

Shingles vaccine
My husband has been called in for a shingles vaccination. Am i correct that he should ask for a non live vaccine as the love vaccine poses a risk to me as I am immune suppressed? I seem to remember hearing this somewhere. Still struggling to get answer fro my nurse advice line. Thanks

Methotrexate and Shingrix Vaccine
Could someone please advise whether I should stop my Methotrexate injection before I receive the shingles vaccine, my Pred reduction seems to be going well and I am worried I will have a flare without the Methotrexate. Have finally got down to 7mg for the first time in 12 years.🤞🤞

Booster jab?
Hi I am concerned that my PMR began after my last booster/flu jab. My Doc also says she has heard of other cases relating to this. So as I qualify for the next round of jabs I am seriously considering not having it. I would appreciate any comments.

Vaccines
Hello everyone.Diagnosed with bronchiectasis. Is it really good to have my pneumoccocal and flu vaccines? How really important it is with bronchiectasis? And how sure it is effective? Thank you. May I have an advice to those who have taken the vaccines already?
