Based on the recommendation of both my pulmonologist and rheumatologist I have had many COVID vaccines including a few extra since I am on immunosuppressants. In fact, I just returned home from getting another jab!
I havegotten the first 3 covid vaccines. But I will not get anymore. I got horrible sick each time. So no more! I did get my flu and pneumonia vaccine and I am planning on getting my rsv. Have a great day! ๐
I have not had any covid shots and won't. For me there's not enough research, it came out to fast and we font know long term effects. Many people develop other things after having them, some have passed away and others do great with it. I have to many allergies to be a part of their test group. Just my opinion, I'm not going to tell others they shouldn't get it, each if us has to do our own research and decided whats best for us.
I had 1st dose of COVID vaccines in 2021 and in a few mins I broke out in hives and came down the day after with COVID. No vaccines for me.

Yes. I have all vaccines available. Superflu every October and have had all available Covid 19 shots. Up to date on Pneumonia shots and also have had Shingrix series. Also up to date on Tetanus, whooping cough etc. Just waiting for RSV vaccine.
I have been advised by my Rheumatologist/Scleroderma Specialist and Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Team to have them. I listen to what they tell me and do what they deem necessary.
I have yet to have reactions from any of them and the last time I had any kind of cold was in 2019. I have never had the flu nor have I had COVID-19.
I do not stay in my house. When I go out, depending where I go, I sometimes wear a mask. So, all good so far. I am 81 so I will keep on doing what works for me which I realize isn't for everybody.
My decisions are based on my medical team's advice and not on what others have experienced.
