Hello @rambo77 Welcome to MayoClinicConnect, a place to get and give information. Everyone shares info about their journey with health issues but we don’t give medical advice because we’re not doctors. You've asked a good question that is on so many minds. I put a link to discussions on the vaccines and health issues. I hope you’ll check out the discussions. I have an autoimmune disease and I’m on steroids and I’m getting monthly chemotherapy, but my doctors said I really should get the shot. What have your doctors said?

Thanks for the reply about MG and the covid Vaccine . I have had 3 phifer shots as the doc said and I take Cellcept The way I understand is you get blood work for white and red cells and the white is low compared to normal that is some gauge of your Immune system . That is what my Doctor told me.
