severe adverse effect of az vaccin

hello

does  anyone had adverse effects of the az vaccin

i had a leukemia 3 years ago and lumps appeared right after the first and second  dose.

seems now that that my cancer is back.

thank you

  • Hello barpi, 

    I am sorry to hear about these adverse effects which you feel may be linked to the vaccine. It is highly unlikely that the vaccine would have made your cancer come back. There have been reports however of swollen lymph nodes following the vaccine but this should be a temporary side effect. As with any lumps though, it is best to get these checked by your doctor who will be in the best position to tell you whether they are linked to the vaccine or not and whether they need further investigation.

    So do make an appointment as soon as you can to get those lumps checked out especially since you have had leukaemia in the past and it is therefore best to have these looked at by your GP when you can. 

    Best of luck with this - I hope it turns out to be nothing to worry about and that these lumps disappear soon. 

    Best wishes,

  • Hello barpi, 

    I hope that you will meet other leukaemia patients who find themselves in a similar situation. I am so sorry to hear that your leukaemia has come back and I hope that the immunotherapy treatment works well for you. 

    Best wishes,
