Due to my breathing difficulties ( which is why I had the ECG the other day ) I questioned the NHS if I should be in the vulnerable category and due a vaccine jab. I am group 7 otherwise. I have Angina which is classed as a Chronic Heart disease. That puts me in a risk category. And yet I have not been advanced up the waiting list. CHD is a recognised risk condition.
I got nowhere when I challenged my Doctor, he said he had no influence over the decision , it's all done by algorithms and I have to wait for the notification, my health record and medications are all on file for the computer to decide.
My wife is 8 years younger than me at 52 , she has Epilepsy and is being treated for Sinusitis and has an inhaler to help her breathing or blocked nose.
She got her call up papers today for vaccination on the 26th.
I have a chest Xray and blood test to do due to my breathing issue, but am not considered a risk if I get Covid.
Ex can probably run half marathons, I can barely walk 50 yards without blowing.
But who am I to challenge, I basically got told to take a f-ck off tablet. !!
