Wondering if the following is worthwhile: Knowing my Oncologist will probably advise against it, in the past he has told me better to deal with covid infection instead of holding CLL medication in an attempt to get a good vaccine response.
13q Muted, off Zanubrutinib since July 22nd, due to covid infection. Yesterday and today are the first days of testing rapid test negative, since becoming infected on July 21/22. . Had labs yesterday, everything looks good. Prior to July 22, had been on BTKi continuously for 2 1/2 years, without issues.
While on ibrutinib had 4 vaccines, made zero antibodies, while on zanubrutinib had one vaccine, made zero antibodies. Thinking about asking oncologist, try to hold zanubrutinib for a few more weeks while getting covid vaccination in attempt to make some antibodies.
Thinking maybe being off BTKi, I might make some antibodies. Wondering if anyone has had experience that might have been similar to this.
