I have had a long term health issue with severe and debilitating migraines. I’ve been seeing a neuro for over 15 years because they can feel so paralyzing and at times if I’m stressed I need major down time. I got a call from my neuros office today to ask if I wanted a letter so I could get the vaccine, would it be unethical of me to do so?
I’m curious how migraines make you higher risk, and what your neurologist’s incentive is in bumping you up the line for this.
Im completely debilitated when I get a bad one, often for a week at a time. I end up taking really strong meds and staying in bed as I can’t function.
Right, but does this make you higher risk for poor outcome w Covid, along the lines of obesity, underlying lung disease, etc
I do believe it makes me higher risk, Im flat out for days and often need to get a scan so I’m exposed to more risk as a result. Neuro is listed as a vulnerability on the new NY list
If it doesn’t feel right...
I’m not sure if it does or not, that’s why I posted for other perspectives. I completely agree with the poster below who said that the more of us who get this and the sooner the better it will be for all
Sounds like you qualify under - Neurologic conditions including but not limited to Alzheimer's Disease or dementia.
i think anyone who remotely qualifies should get a vaccine. The more people that get it the better off everyone is. limiting the eligible groups just slows down the pace of vaccinations
