Today I had third of 3 BCG infusions. Currently knocking back requisite two litres of water. But give me 48 hours and I'll be having my first glass of wine for three weeks. Nice feeling to have a couple of months off treatment before next flexi.
Just wondered if anyone knows how long I need to leave it before I can have my flu jab? I have read somewhere that there can be problems between the two viruses, but unsure of implications. Also thought it worth mentioning for others info, that my dental hygienist advised I leave a few weeks gap between BCG doses and having teeth cleaned because of bacteria and supressed immune system.
Best wishes lovely group. x
Hi H. If I remember rightly, you cannot have the flu jab within 6 weeks of BCG, but not certain. It may be a good question to post in the Ask a Nurse section for an expert opinion and future reference to others. A funny old world of ours when we have to think twice about things that others consider normal. Enjoy your wine (I think I'll join you) Best wishes.
And here I am feeling hard done by cos I have to knock back a litre of water tomorrow lol. Enjoy that wine when you get it, early present from Santa
