Asked the same also Island, it makes no difference as
both my arms and shoulders are painful with RA but,
offer my left arm.

Cyber blessings to you Emma <3
I get off quite lightly on the RA front, horrid and dragging when I have a flare but thankfully not too often.

I'd trade all my tomorrows for a single yesterday

I've been lucky ............ I've never had any more than a very slight swelling with the flu jab ....... and it hasn't stopped me using my arm. Even the pneumonia shot didn't do too much.

In previous years I've had the jab before now from the district nurse.

Maybe she will call next week, or not.

I had a message left on the answer phone on Monday when I was at the hospital having the iron infusion,saying nurses was coming out Tuesday morning to do the jab but would ring first to see i was in

Well not having the knee done I went out for the usual Tuesday coffee morning and lunch and then the weekly shop
I had my grandson too this week as he was on half term

Sooo missed it

Have had a letter for my six month bp check and a letter to get a blood test beforehand,and a note to arrange to get the jab at the surgery now

Bee arms are pin cushions with all the jabs .Have another iron infusion too on monday

Soo it’s let the veins recover for the next round
