He is immune compromised slightly (gets vaccines though) but caught the RSV virus last winter after being vaccinated the previous season.

Definately speak to his doctor about it.
My son had it when he was a baby (know how scary it can be). Hope your little guy makes it though the season safely.

First I will stress what has already been said. You should be asking your son's pediatrician or cardiologist this question.
You haven't said but I'll presume the heart condition your son has is a defect. The RSV vaccine isn''t a vaccine at all. It's an injection of antibodies. RSV can be dangerous to those with heart defects. The antibody is compatible with routine vaccinations.
Please, to be sure, ask the doctor.

This is a definate question for your doctor, who has his medical history, none of us do, and cannot give you an educated decision. Ask your doctor.

YES , I WOULD ASK HIS PEDIATRICIAN FIRST BEFORE GETTING THEM BUT THE VACCINES SHOULD NOT CAUSE ANY SERIOUS ISSUES OR COMPLICATIONS
