Have you had a letter from haemo department re a third COVID jab then a booster? Told to get in touch with GP to oraganise, they know nothing about it.?
I am sorry to hear about the confusion with the vaccine and whether you should have it or not.
We do have some information on our website stating who should be getting this vaccine which you can see here
If you scroll down there is a table indicating who should be receiving the booster dose. If you have a haematology nurse then do discuss this with her or if you are having active treatment then do talk to your haematologist.
Without being involved in your care and knowing more about your particular case it is quite difficult to advise you.
You may find it helpful to read the statement written by Blood Cancer UK about who should have the third vaccine. Have a look here
If you find that you are one of these patients with a similar cancer then do show this to your GP.
I hope that this is helpful. If you would like to talk this through with one of the nurses then do get back to us. The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.
