Members shared their experiences with the COVID vaccine while managing Multiple Myeloma, with most choosing to get vaccinated, often combining it with the flu shot and other vaccines like RSV and pneumonia. Several members noted no problems after receiving their vaccines, while a few with concerns like heart issues or blood clotting risks chose to skip it, and others followed their doctor's specific guidance around transplant timelines or low immunity.
