Revaccination after stem cell tranplant

Hi everyone it has been a while since i have posted. Glad to say I am 11 months post stem cell transplant (sibling donor) and I am strong. My white cell count is still requiring growth factor twice weekly but this is due to the donor lymphocytes I have received. Anyway I am not catching anything so thats fine. The issue of revaccination has arisen and I wondered what others thought about it. Has anyone been revaccinated and if so did they have any adverse reaction. I am wary since I feel it is still only a baby immune system and could vaccines put strain on that. I know all the medical people advise it and I see their point too. Thankyou and best wishes to everyone Lesley
