Hi, I am a 15 year thymus carcinoma mg survivor, taking mycophenolate motef, pyridostigmine and prednisone. I recently took my first Pfizer vaccine (6 days ago) did well until that night. Had a vomit spell in middle of night, lethargic the following day. Next day back to normal. A little apprehensive about next shot. Looking to find cause of throwing up. Thinking there could have been a
contraindication in medications. My neuro had suggested that I take whichever vaccine I was offered. Hope this was helpful, stay safe. |

Hi Selina
Welcome to NeuroTalk . As far vaccines are concerned, which I have taken from the search from Jomar, the general advice is to avoid a vaccine made using a live virus as well as if you have any allergies to vaccines and (obviously) check with your doctor first. Best wishes.
