A little more info regarding @
JohnS conversation with Dr Villa Forte. She called me at about 7:00 last night. So far, the vaccines are OK for us weggies. The trick is getting the shots timed around rtx treatments.
I have been getting an annual dose of 1000 mg of rtx usually in September-October. I have a new wrinkle in that my insurance is not approving this treatment any longer. They will approve two 500 mg doses spaced six months apart. I知 scheduled for my next treatment in March. If I can get both COVID shots before March 1 (unlikely), I値l be OK for rtx as scheduled. If not, I値l have to wait six months after rtx before getting the COVID shots.
Fortunately, my last 1000 mg dose should see me through until autumn 2021. Our plan for now is for me to get a B-cell test in February. If that looks good, I値l postpone the March rtx and get the COVID shots at my earliest opportunity, then wait six months for the next rtx.
BTW, Dr Villa Forte says she has 139 weggies on rtx, and she痴 going to call each of us. This is but one of the reasons why I think she痴 a great doctor!
