I was in perfect health, well maybe a few pounds overweight. I never took any pills except for my migraines. No high blood pressure no high cholesterol, no history of cancer in my family. I’m the first. I had my blood tests done at my physical in November 2020. Everything was fine, no problem. March and April 2021, I received my Covid vaccines and in November, 2021, I was told I had way to much protein in my blood. I needed to go to an oncologist and was diagnosed with… read more

I have gotten the initial 2 shots and have had 2 additional booster vaccines. My last booster was Nov. 18, 2021. When I called my doctor's office to ask if I needed another vaccine, they simply said yes you need one every six months. I don't want to overlook the fact that they are coming out with new vaccines that are more affective against some of the newer variants. I don't know if I should just get the original vaccine or wait for one of the newer ones. I'm curious to know what is being… read more

I'm going to a trade show in Sept. and possibly another in Oct.

I'm still immune compromised and its probably going to be a long time before my immune system will recover. Due to Covid, I've mostly been working from home but not exclusively - food shopping, restaurants, recently movies again, and endless doctor, PT, and now gym visits, etc.

Being on a plane and in close contact to thousands of people at a trade show is a whole new level of exposure that concerns me.

I will have my blood tested to determine if I have Covid antibodies. My doc provided a script.

I hear there are outbreaks again of Covid all over the United States. How does everyone feel about getting new vaccines again with all the evidence that has come forward on not working?with evidence showing they are not effective and can cause other problems?

I tested positive for Covid yesterday & treating the symptoms with over the counter meds. The nurse I spoke with said treating with Theraflu or Coricidin is just as effective as Paxlovid. I don’t know what to do. I will say yesterday was the height of my symptoms. I’m treating it with over the counter meds which so far I’m getting relief. The nurse called a prescription for Paxlovid but not sure now if I should absolutely take it. What is everyone’s experience been? I was doing so well dodging… read more

Hi everyone, what's your opinion (or your doctor's) on getting re-vaccinated for common vaxs like measles, mumps, etc., after having undergone a successful autologous SCT?

Hi
I am on Daralex and dexamethasone for maintenance therapy. I ask my doctor about getting the Covid 19 vaccine and was told it may not be as effective because of the maintenance therapy. They did not say I could not get the vaccine, but I should check to see what the CDC guidelines were.

Thanks

What are your views on the Covid boosters. I had mild Covid while I was boosted and I need to decide if I want another shot. Things are coming out about serious problems caused by the shot but my immunity is low. So what’s everyone’s opinion
