prednisone and covid vaccine, precursor to cll
I am just finishing a short round of prednisone for hip bursitis. How long should I wait to get the phyzer bivalent vaccine? I was just diagnosed with the precursor to CLL and am concerned about swollen lymph nodes as a result of the vaccination. As of now I have none.
When can I get my vaccine after finishing the prednisone

Hi @dsh1957, this sounds like a question that you should confirm with your doctor. A quick internet search of evidence-based trusted sources offer different recommendations about how long to wait after prednisone treatment before getting the bivalent booster. It ranges from no need to wait after completing prednisone to waiting between 2 to 4 weeks. You should check with your doctor.
When did you finish your treatment with prednisone?
