Best Vaccine Timing on Treatment - Tips?
AI-generated title
Greetings! I’m wondering about “timing” for vaccinations. I realize that being immunocompromised I may have a slow, low, or no protective response, but I want to optimize vaccine antibody response. I’m on a 3 weeks “on”-one week “off” schedule. I.e., Wk 1 (Tuesdays) is DKd (Dara-Kyprolis-Dexamethasone) + Zometa + IVIG; Weeks 2 and 3 DKd only, also on Tuesdays. I’m due for Covid + Flu vaccinations. And in mid November I’m also due for my second shingles vaccination. Recent treatments: —04/21 - COVID booster —09/09 - carfilzomib (KYPROLIS)+ dexAMETHasone (DECADRON)+ zoledronic acid (ZOMETA) —09/16 - carfilzomib (KYPROLIS)+ dexAMETHasone (DECADRON) —09/30 -carfilzomib (KYPROLIS)+DARZALEX FASPRO) 1800 mg-30,000 units+ dexAMETHasone (DECADRON)+ immune globulin (GAMMAGARD) —10/05 - SHINGLES Vaccination —10/07 - carfilzomib (KYPROLIS)+dexAMETHasone (DECADRON)+ zoledronic acid (ZOMETA) —10/14 - I’m scheduled for something (s) but am uncertain what? I’d guess carfilzomib (KYPROLIS)+dexAMETHasone (DECADRON). Am uncertain if DARZALEX FASPRO too?? I find scheduling a nightmare. Any ideas what a timing schedule might look like for COVID+ FLU soon and SHINGLES in mid-November? Thanks so much.
