Pneumonia and flu vaccines

When I was on the antibiotics (pre-Covid) , in addition to annual flu vaccine, my doc had me get the Shingrix vaccine and update my pneumonia and pertussis vaccines.

She said that with lowered defenses, it was important to build whatever immunity was possible with the vaccines. I felt like a pin cushion for several weeks as she insisted each be done a minimum of 7 days apart.

This year's flu vaccine barely gave me a sore shoulder! Now I have to wait until 90 days post-Covid to get my booster. I have it marked on the calendar.

It sounds like you had a comprehensive approach to vaccinations during your antibiotic treatment. It's great that your flu vaccine went peinados para graduación smoothly this year! Waiting for 90 days post-Covid for your booster is also a prudent step. Keeping track on your calendar will help ensure you don’t miss it. If you have any questions about the vaccines or post-Covid care, feel free to ask!

Thank you Sue. I got the over 65 flue vaccine today. I hope I will be fine.
