To Vaccinate Or Not

A myPHteam Member asked a question 💭
St. Augustine, FL

Has anyone in here had covid? If so did you have to be admitted to the hospital or did you deal with it at home? If you had company covid what other conditions do you have if any that might have played a part with your covid recovery?

I’m trying to determine if I should get the vaccine or not. I have the PH plus Thrombocytopenia, and a very low immune system. I’m concerned on outcomes if I were to get Covid without being vaccinated.

Hi Nate, Welcome to our Family. Ask Your Doctor since they will be taking care of You. I have a lot of allergies n seem to add more daily. It was quite a decision process to decide if I would get the vaccine. Don't be discouraged, hang in there. Keep asking your Doctor's until they figure it out. Just be careful and wear your mask, avoid crowds and use precautions when around people. My Doctors finally sent the Covid team to my house to keep me away from crowds. Today will be the first Doctor I have seen in their office since June. Covid is everywhere here. Prayers for an answer for you soon.

Hi Nate Young. Maybe you should ask your doctors again. If you have a very low immune system you really need the doctors recommendations. Best wishes, ABQ Jane

Thank you! I agree I would love to get the vaccine but some say those with low immune systems should get it while others say people with low immune systems shouldn’t.

I will keep you and everyone else posted

I'm not sure. I've been told I should get the booster shot but, I'm still on the fence about it.... 🙃🤔
