Fear can be healthy, and fear can be like a thick fog. Take the sport of parachuting. Fear says don't and that's ok. Not required to live unless plane is going down. Well your body is your plane, and it is flying through thick fog, fear, one engine of the plane's two is dead and you need to land at nearest airport, <a data-ga-on="click" data-ga-event-category="recommendation-article-link" data-ga-event-action="click" data-ga-event-label="vaccine" class="ga-autotrack" href="/resources/covid-19-and-rheumatoid-arthritis-ra-essential-updates?mht_campaign=612659ccf535285272b2bef7&mht_medium=keyword&mht_source=Answer">vaccine</a>, option keep flying or land at airport, <a data-ga-on="click" data-ga-event-category="recommendation-article-link" data-ga-event-action="click" data-ga-event-label="vaccine" class="ga-autotrack" href="/resources/covid-19-and-rheumatoid-arthritis-ra-essential-updates?mht_campaign=612659ccf535285272b2bef7&mht_medium=keyword&mht_source=Answer">vaccine</a>, or sometimes when I am stuck in the fog, fear, I punt the ball, decision, and go buy lotto tickets and act like I am ok. I am very indecisive. I have got both Pfizer shots and I have CKD, RA and sjogrens. Best of luck for your health.

Get your <a data-ga-on="click" data-ga-event-category="recommendation-article-link" data-ga-event-action="click" data-ga-event-label="covid" class="ga-autotrack" href="/resources/covid-19-and-rheumatoid-arthritis-ra-essential-updates?mht_campaign=6126e64765df612be2936772&mht_medium=keyword&mht_source=Answer">covid</a> shot.

I have gotten the vaccine. My doctor sent me for THREE doses rather than two, the last one months after the first two, because I’m immunocompromised.

I have asthma and had no issues taking the Covid shot. They asked us to wait for about 15 minutes too. That was to make sure we didn't have a reaction. I hope that helps.
