        Is there any indication when us GBS’ers can expect to get a 2nd Booster shot – will we qualify as imuno compromised as well as being old?

        I am as much in the dark as you are. The government has not yet released the criteria determining who will be eligible or when. I should mention that people who have had GBS are not immunocompromised and people with CIDP are only immune compromised if they are on active treatment with immunosuppressive drgus such as steroids, azathioprine (Imuran), cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan) and others. If they are not currently receiving any treatment or are being treated with immune globulin they will not be immunocompromised.
