@codered032 Thank you for checking in! I always find it so interesting to read how COVID affects people so differently. Many factors, including our underlying health level and concerns certainly seem to make a difference. Along with the treatment options we have to choose from. Very glad you have not experienced long term effects.
I have had many vaccinations for COVID, the last one a bivalent from Moderna, where before it was always Pfizer. Knock on wood, no positive tests. My husband wanders off traveling, and I have a hard rule of proof of a negative test before he is allowed back in the house. My dislysis continues each day, and still living with my multiple myeloma and associated treatment.

Good morning ginger. I know that you are not a doctor but I need an opinion. I have been in remission for MCD for over 2.5 years. My Tac was decreased to 1mg. Three months ago. I recently had a mild UTI and Covid at the same time. Currently all my labs are stable. My Neph is recommending Rituximab infusion. I’m not sure that I should or take this considering my labs are stable and my eGFR is 59-60. What do you think? I am just asking for an opinion thanks

Thank you for reaching out. COVID definitely behave differently in everyone. I was able to stay COVID for three years. I recently became too lax with my precautions. Do you know how long I have to wait before updating my next vaccine? Or am I considered protected since I recently tested positive?
Thank you for your sharing positive support on this site. I appreciate your knowledge and feedback. Many Blessings to you.
