Hi Graeme
Thanks so much for taking the time this morning to reply. I managed to get a reply from the Consultant who says that the shingles vaccine should not be given as it is a live vaccine. She also said not to get the flu or pneumonia ones as is too close to the transplant now for them. Just shows you that it’s best to double check as the nurse said yesterday to go ahead!
It’s a worrying time as my mum is 71 but is fit for her age so hopefully the transplant won’t be too tough on her. I’m sure you are glad to have that over with! Thanks again for your advice Graeme, I hope you are keeping well.
Best wishes
Angela
