In terms of getting the vaccines for the visa process - I was able to get all five of my missing vaccines on the day, no problem (COVID, flu, tetanus, hep b and MMR) but my appt did take a while as a result. For MMR they offered a blood test, but since I’d caught mumps AFTER my first MMR, it felt safer to just double vax. We skipped varicella as I’ve had it, but again they offered a blood test if I didn’t know. If I’d been pregnant, planning to get pregnant, breastfeeding or prone to DVT this wouldn’t have been possible, so worth calling ahead for a chat. Cost £240 and I now have all vaccine paperwork. 
 

in terms of my missing medical records, this is a bigger palaver. If you face similar, ask your GP practice as early as possible if they have reported your records missing to PCSE and if not to do so immediately. The PCSE will then attempt to find your records and reconstruct them if they’re completely gone. PCSE had some strong words about my GP’s conduct, this is absolutely not normal and they def shouldn’t be like *shrug* it’s fine! like my GP was. 

 

Glad you were able to get all your vaccinations sorted out
