Can People With Multiple Myeloma Taking Maintenance Therapy Get The Covid 19 Vaccine?

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

Do FISH Results Showing Chromosome Deletions And Alterations Ever Change Back To Normal As A Result Of Chemo Treatments?

This is also puzzling, since we were told that "high risk" suggests that the usual therapies do not work and multiple… read more
