I was able to get my Evushield shots about two weeks ago. My GP ordered them for me and was told at my 4 year transplant checkup that it would be a good thing. I had told my Mayo provider that I had gotten a letter from Allina saying that I was eligible. Got them at a hospital in the glutes also and had no side effects. Yay!

@cmael, So you got your local health care provider. That sounds great! I was lucky about the perfect timing of my notice with my Mayo Clinic visit! I had been deciding whether to get my 2nd booster before or after my annual post transplant visit and if the notice in my Mayo Patient Portal had come a day later, I might have had the booster which would have disqualified me for the Evusheld. Timing IS everything. I have an appointment with PCP tomorrow, and will ask him about the possibility of getting the next Evusheld locally if one is recommended. I won't be at Mayo until next May.
I'm always happy to see your name pop up! I still remember meeting you in the lab waiting area.
