Vaccinations following breast surgery and radiotherapy

Thanks, I’m going to stick with not getting anything done on that arm as that is what I was advised by my oncologist, that’s all we can do! X

I'm so sorry that you are suffering so much following your flu jab, your immune system certainly has taken a bashing.

It is looking clear from all the replies that it may be best to stick to vaccinations in the other arm, but then you've got a problem with that too.

Keep fighting x

Hi Bilko

Hope you are doing ok too.

They didn't give an approximate timeline. I had my surgery in July and then start chemo in October. When I asked about vaccines being we were entering into flu/covid season. Knowing that the type of chemo I was recieving it was discussed heavily with the oncology team about the best course of action as my immune system was going to be non existent until had finished the EC at least. It was possible it was bad timing but it it was it is.

I still have a cough but going through the side effects.of the cycle also.

Take care x
