I've just had a letter from my rheumatology team informing me that I'm entitled to the 3rd vaccination. I can get this 8 weeks after my 2nd jab (given 6 months ago!).

I've been having trouble booking my booster, but I'm informed by 119 that (3 times) the my NHS number has the wrong date of my 2nd jab, so I no mention of the 3rd!?

My plan is to call my rheumatology team Monday,

Frustration doesn't cover it.

Hello @Graflatais475‍, thank you for opening this discussion. What a frustrating mix-up! Do let us know what your rehumatology team says.

Has anyone else had your booster jab yet? Have you had any issues getting it or any reactions afterwards?

Feel free to share here!

Take care,

I have had my third jab and now have to wait for 24 week to have the Booster. I have also had my flu jab.

I continue to have major issues in trying to get my third booster vaccine because I'm immunosuppressed it's called a third Primary not that it makes a lot of difference because my second job was 6 months ago. Anyway the irony is my husband has been able to book his booster jab I can't even get mine!

I had a hip replacement 16 months ago due to osteoarthritis. I can honestly say it was the best decision I have ever made. Yes I was not looking forward to everything post op, but I am now 100% mobile and after not being able to walk any distances I now enjoy walking again and I've managed to lose 2.5 stones. Totally pain free and I've had lots of comments about how much happier I look - my face was obviously showing my pain. If you have any questions please ask!
