What does moderates mean? I cant believe we are being censored!
many thanks yes already called NhS 111 who all advised i must speak to my rheumatologist on monday before i take my next my injection.. as they are not specialists in this field. she would expect that i should stop the medication.
just praying im ok.. for my 3 year old as she going to need her mummy!
I hope and pray you will be OK and that it’s not a big concern. I think it’s fearful you may get shingles but I am not sure. Let us know what you find out xoxo
thank u for ur prayers yes your right but ive read that having rheumatoid arthiritius puts us in higher risk for getting shingles with or without anti tnf treatment.: the problem with anti tnf is we can get very sick if we are exposed to chicken pox or shingles and im now playing a waiting game to see if i have any reactions and to see when my daughters first spot appeared.. will jeep you all updated - been advised by 111 to go to A&E IF i have any reactions before monday.. so fingers crossed. i have been getting pins and needles in my feet but thathas been for a week.
