Need Help - Hematology won't do testing

Oh girl. I don't know of anyone in my circle who has had such adverse reactions to vaccines. My internist tells me I am prone to infections because my IgA is low. First time it was tested in 2018, and twice since then. Just a month ago, my IgA was 26, which is really low! Guess what? It can't be cured, and not even immunotherapy will help. What this means is that I am highly susceptible to infections in general. I only just found out about it! Now, I know why I've been chronic sick with back to back infections for years now. Also, I was told that this condition doesn't respond well to vaccines. Soooo. There it is. I've got all sorts of new Intel on my body from my new internist. She's amazing and I feel hope for first time in years. Finally have a 5-star doctor who also cares and listens. FYI, I lost over 50% of hair from Covid, but it's coming back over past year.

They're great about doc ! Oddly enough I found a great PA who is a great diagnostician and tests for things other doctor don't. He's young and spiritual and knowledgeable. Perfect for me. I left the MD for him hahahahahaha!! I also feel hope for the first time. 😁

I never had an issue with flu or pneumonia or tetanus vaccines.
