Before going to the medical did you all have MMR Jab.

We have all had Hep B and all the normal ones for UK.

Kids had MMR along with all the other routine ones.

Flu jab is next week.

Thanks

I had the same and it was because of the Varicella too. In my hopsital now I am not allowed to look after anyone who has Shingles or Chicken Pox as apparently even though I have had chicken Pox my bloods say I am suseptible to catching it again....BUT the unit I work on we are NOT allowed anyone with infections so they get moved to another unit pretty quickly.

Just had the flu jab.

Nurse said come back in a couple of weeks for MMR they will have to get it in an adult dose for us as only have kids on the shelf.

No interview date yet so no hurry I guess.

Can't understand why she didn't give you the MMR as it is only one dose and same for adults as children
