Which vaccination should you get with pre-existing heart conditions?

Posted by davej @davej, Nov 18, 2021

I was afraid to get vaccinated, 3 family members with in 2 days of being vaccinated had heart attacks. It has been a few months and I have not heard of anybody else having that problem. All three family members were told getting vaccinated had nothing to do with heart attacks. So I have asked 2 nurses I know if they told their patients which one to get when you have preexisting conditions. They both told me that they were not qualified to give their opinion on he vaccine. So I'm asking any of you, if you have been told by a medical professional which one is more beneficial with preexisting conditions ? Which one did you get and why? Thanks for giving me an education on these vaccines.

Jennifer,

Thank you for posting the link. I have several serious heart problems, low IgM, hypoxia with unknown cause. I am on oxygen and self isolating most of the time except for appointments. All my doctors tell me to get the booster. I did not have side affects from the two Pfizer vaccines, but I’ll get J&J this time. The more I read about mRNA vaccines the less comfortable I am. I will be flying to Mayo in January and I need some protection.

Thanks, Janet. I'm glad I could help. Good for you for being pro-active! Stay warm too! If you are headed to Rochester in January, it can get pretty cold. Do you have someone traveling with you to help?

Yes, I have a friend who is a retired emergency room nurse coming with me. I am looking forward to my consultations.
