@petuniamom567 Perhaps coming right out and asking your nephrologist what his/her thoughts are on the booster shot, would make thing clearer to you. Anyone with a chronic disease is at a disadvantage if they contract COVID, not just those of us with kidney problems! You are absolutely right, we need to advocate for ourselves, and do what we feel is best for our situation.

I received my third dose of Pfizer vaccine on 19 August. Did not question my nephrologist, but did clear it with my oncologist!

Yes, I did ask just to ensure it was the right thing and get it done. My hematologist also agreed to get the booster. Good luck!
