Hope you're feeling better now @Shades. I agree that the Shingles thing seems odd. I have now turned 70, so have had my first vaccination.

Thank you @forest plodder this bout of Covid was pretty awful but today I'm back out for a little run/walk. Another 2 years for my shingles vaccination, however so far I've never had shingles. |

Just looked to book for mine, they all start on the 4th which is the day I go away so they'll have to wait.

I still think that's not a logical or sensible approach to introducing the shingles vaccine to over 65's.

I experienced similar with poo sticks - I had my first one at 58, but if I'd been a year younger, I'd have had it at 56. In other news, I received my invitation to book my C19 & flu vaccinations today ("only" 60, but immunosuppressed) |

I've got my flu and Covid jab next Saturday. Still not quite recovered from 2nd bout of Covid in 2 months. Hopefully I shall have ample antibodies to see me through the winter. 🤣 |

After feeling a bit off on Tuesday night, sore throat and iffy yesterday, I've tested positive. Tbf, it's probably what OH had recently, mixed with a ladies day at the weekend.

I've had both 'flu and COVID jabs (Wednesday). No side effects to speak of, just a tender arm

Mr J
Had flu jab. I do think that I have a lower immune system since Covid. Get ill quicker and longer to recover. |
