4th Covid Jab Before Chemotherapy?

Hi 

I had my third before surgery and chemo but my fourth 3 weeks after last chemo before radiotherapy. If this help good luck x

Were you due to have the 4th jab anyway? I had my 3rd/booster in December, so well before I knew I had breast cancer, and I'm not on the current eligible list for the 4th.

If you have cancer diagnosis in our area you are eligible I am 66 and got mine x

I had my third mid chemo, they do recommend you have all the additional boosters, also you are eligible for the antibodies treatment if you do contract covid x

You can have your COVID booster any time during treatment. Perhaps it is most ideal to have it before you start chemo if you can. I had mine  before chemo  - it takes at least a week for antibodies to start rising and then another 3 to peak. Another consideration is that if you have your booster now, it will be most likely be  6 months before you can have the next one .... and it would be ideal to be re-boosted before Christmas if you are only just out of chemo then. I think it is a personal choice as to when to go for the jab. I had to take along my letter saying that I had breast cancer and had chemo to my vaccination centre.
