Sorry I cannot answer that question, every patient is different and also may be at a different stage of illness. Only a physician can answer your question.

That's been asked many times so use the search feature for old conversations.
When others have checked about it with their Drs they all said it's ok.
Check with your own Dr to be sure.

I was wondering this too, as mine is due and I was just diagnosed a week ago.
I have a follow up with my doc today and I know they are going to push the flu shot at me. I am taking Vanco, is there any interaction there?
