Immunizations and MG

Has anyone noticed that Immunizations make their MG symptoms worse. My OMG has seemed worse after a Shingles, Flu and Covid shot. Covid the worst.

  1. I get an annual flu shot and covid booster, but I get them at least a month apart, I don't like anything that further messes with my immune system, but because I take immunosuppressants, I'm at greater risk of disease

    1. wow. Knowing now that research clearly shows the ineffectiveness of ANY covid “vaccine “, my question would be why anyone would ever take that experimental chemical-god knowing that it is the direct cause of myocarditis and many many deaths of young athletes on the playing field. But i do applaud you being careful re your immune system. I am on immunosuppressants also for MG. As well as a five day course of iv gamma globulin g ( insert said includes A also) and man, my symptoms shot to the sky. Hoping only temporary. So thanks for your honest post.

  2. I don't think you should of had the shingles did you tell them you had MG pneumonia too but please do check I was very poorly after my flu jab not sure if it's the flu jab or I caught nova virus or flu but omg 8 was in bed for 8 days and still now weak tired and my eyes are bad "

    1. I had Pneumonia last year and this year. Sad to think about. Outmost care is needed.

      1. I got Covid (again) and this time I took Paxlovid. Boy, did I make a mistake! I was SO sick! Never again! I'd rather have Covid than the Paxlovid, thank you very much. Doomed to be sick, fellow MGers!
