Anyone who has had the vaccine and immunosuppressed?

I have just found out that people with blood cancer can have the vaccine, I was worried I couldn't. According to the information I was given if you are on chemotherapy or immunosuppressed it may not give you the same level of antibodies but some are better than none! I am still trawling through the information so if I find anything else out I will let you know Marydoll. Good luck with getting an answer from the doctors, my consultant hasn't got back to me either! I got the info from a friend who is a doctor. He isn't a specialist but sent me his latest information.

Thanks, Urmston I have already left messages. Everything is going to voicemail. It seems they are overwhelmed.
What I have managed to learn is that therapy may need to be paused for four weeks after receiving the vaccine or efficacy may be reduced. Another thing to deal with.

Marydoll could you ask your kindly retired specialist by email for his thoughts? His secretary would supply the user name if you don’t already have it.

I can understand your concern and the need for information. Good luck. x

Marydoll I feel your pain! I have been able to establish that it would be better for me to have the AstraZeneca jab but my gut instinct is that I will need to have it timed between infusions to get the most benefit from it. No one seems to know so I'm approaching the manufacturer of my biological to ask them. The pharmacist at your hospital may be able to help too.

Oh, Marydoll I feel your concern over this and sincerely hope that someone can come up with a safe answer x
