This - that's about half the cost that was it was reported they were paying per day for PWC management consultants. A comparative bargain!
Have you had your [s]microchip[/s] vaccine yet?

I have a underling condition of Immunosuppression (mine is neutropenia). This would out me in level six of the vaccine roll out, but I don't think I am. Am I supposed to contact my GP? or my blood doctor at the hospital? I assume they are all jolly busy at the moment and don't want to cause a fuss.
It's a condition that doesn't seem to set off alarms, as I usually have to tell my GP or other doctors when I am being treated for something else, (then they look it up and go "oh yes").

Did you recheck the 'underlying condition' list for vaccination priority, that the JCVI issued at the end of December??
(List is a fair bit far down that linked page).
Definitely worth (re?)-checking with your GP (or eleswhere), whether what you describe falls into this one one though :

Good luck
They haven't got to group 6 yet so maybe hang fire until they do? I'm also immunosuppressed and on and off have rubbish neutrophils and no-one's been in touch with me yet either. But assume they will be cos I'm on the flu jab list which presumably you are too?

I do fall into that category yes. That is why I was asking.Did you recheck the 'underlying condition' list for vaccination priority, that the JCVI issued at the end of December??

You surely should be getting the flu jab???? Telling you to go to A&E if you get flu but not making sure you get the jab seems like madness to me. So yeah, if I were you, I'd call and ask to speak to a GP and explain the situation. Good luck.

My neutrophil tests are always with a separate doctor at the hospital, and I always get the impression this never properly filters through to my local GP practice (who I know gets letters). I'm not sure who I am actually supposed to call. I can't get through to a GP by phoning.
Wish I could just email someone and let them deal with it when they have time.
Your GP should get clinic letters and you should get a copy. Can you email your GP? Make a phone appointment to discuss? Contact your hospital doctor? Or have you an assigned nurse specialist? They tend ime to be very good at sorting stuff out.

My dad has had problems getting in touch with their GP. I suggested writing a letter and dropping it in or posting it. May be an option.

Sure, I did understand that it was very likely that you'd be in JCVI's priority category 6, , but I don't know too much about immunosuppression, so I wanted to clarify that, as well as for the sake of encouraging you to be optimistic .......
My 'Good Luck' with you getting the jab ASAP wishes still stand, anyway!

My GP does get the letters as do I.
Cheers. I think I'm just worried that it won't be picked up on and I don't want to be a bother, but I also worry about my daughter going back to school without me having protection. I know she is very careful, but my observations of other kids outside of school seems to be big maskless groups intermingling as soon as they leave the gates.Sure, I did understand that it was very likely that you'd be in JCVI's priority category 6, , but I don't know too much about immunosuppression, so I wanted to clarify that, as well as for the sake of encouraging you to be optimistic .......

I'll try an email to the hospital, (though last time that took over a month to get to the correct person for a response).

I thought that as well!
Happy to report that 24ish hours later I have no side effects whatsoever. I had the Pfizer vaccination.

They've been sending late invitation letters to the almost-50s, so I had one 3 weeks ago.
The nurse just called me to say they'll come round later this morning or early afternoon to give me my first dose.
Just had an Astrazeneca jab. My wife had just received her letter to make an appointment for her vaccination, and cheekily asked if they could give her a jab at the same time. They said yes!
If you go with them you have a chance yourself.

Oh, I'll go with them ... the person doing their booking (over the phone) said that there was no chance, but I'm going anyway.
At the rate they are jabbing, I might have to wait another two or three weeks even if the trip on Sunday is fruitless ...

Been vaxxed to the max, baby!
At the local football ground. It was run like a military op. They were doing about 10 people a minute. Seamless.

Bringing YOU round.....
Just got a message saying the appointment next week for the second dose has been postponed to the week after due to poor uptake of slots next week. Its the Pfizer so they are concerned about waste/storage logistics I guess.

Sort of related, I went for a test yesterday (negative
) and found the logistics to be spot on as was the one I took last month at a different location. I guess practice makes perfect.

I'm still waiting, maybe another three weeks - the other three were done on Sunday (14th Feb 2021).
It was bloody cold waiting outside for them, as OH had to wait extra 15minutes after getting the Pfzier one.

so i wasn't expecting to be contacted until may or june given my youthful age but just got a text from my doctor's asking me to book in for the jab - so will have it by the end of the week. very surprised, can only thank my former immoderate drinking which has seen me invited to get a flu jab for many years now.

Some people around here have been getting stickers after the jab.
I've had my Covid Vaccination stickers.
I didn't get a sticker.
Where's my fucking sticker?
