Hi everyone,
I have a trip planned (departing in 6 weeks) that requires the Yellow Fever vaccine. My Neuro and I have discussed and she feels that getting the vaccine is okay given recent bloodwork and I'm stable on Tecfidera. However, yesterday a travel doctor refused to give me the vaccine as he fears I'll get yellow fever from the vaccine since I'm on a immune modulator. Any experience with good or negative yellow fever vaccinations and Tecfidera specifically?
I'm also now looking for a travel doctor that will at least review information from Neuro; the one yesterday would not. I'm in MN urban area.
Thanks!
