Reply to comment by braellyra in Immuno-suppressants may negatively affect SARS-CoV-2 antibody responses. In a study on autoimmune inflammatory rheumatic disease (AIRD) patients, neutralizing antibody levels were significantly lower for AIRD patient than in controls. Arthritis treatments were risk factors for reduced responses by glawgii

I was told not to stop the first time, and I ended up having reduced response. The second time I did stop, and I got the jou of a flare and a full blown Covid shot response at the same time. Most miserable month in my memory! My doctors were VERY clear though that I had to have the vaccines and needed to be extraordinarily careful even after I got them. RA with biologics makes our risks so much higher. Worst gift ever!
