Chemotherapy interferes with the immune systems ability to generate immunity to pathogens. And a vaccine only works if the body generates an immune response to it. Please read link above.

It seems to me that Covid does that as well, so I guess play with the statistics. Nonetheless, still the recommendation from my MO. I see that most agree. Unless immune system has collapsed.

Get the vaccine as soon as you can. If you listen to internet conspiracy theories you are liable to end up on a ventilator. Trust science.

Of course. It’s a no-brainer as there is no downside.

Thanks i see now but the original poster hadn't mentioned the vaccine , so didn't follow his original comment.

Make it a double then come over and haul away the empty Jack bottles that are cluttering my garage.

I thought this post was in response to someone that had asked the question about taking the Covid vaccine. It looks like that may not have been the case. I

J-O-H-N you are correct, I should have included that in my profile which I will update tomorrow, but since everyone's on the cusp of making decision about a Covid shot, I've had a RP, salvage radiation, docetaxel chemo - 6 doses, common regimen, now on Xtandi which isn't working.

Meeting with MO and getting PET scan next week. Will develop go-forward strategy.

I'm looking at LU-177, bone mets no outer areas based on last PET.

More info tomorrow.

Not what you're looking for?
