I've been invited for my annual flu jab today, might be a daft question but is anyone aware of a problem being on Hormone Therapy and having the flu jab?
Thanks
Not as far as I’m aware I had mine last year without a problem. Covid jab one week Flu the next (different arms ..don’t know why). I am on Decapeptyl.
best wishes Richard
I had my flu jab within 5 minutes of the Zoladex jab Michael1953 . The practice nurse said there wasn’t an issue having both.
Hello Michael1953,
The flu jab is OK on HT, I'm on it indefinitely and was told this by my CNS.
