If you wish maximal protection against COVID-19, vaccination is the route. You do NOT have any contraindications, so, get ASAP. You are likely at very high risk where you live.

Yes, the risk of contracting the infection with its lethal potential outweighs by far the minimal likelihood of vaccine side effects. Your medical conditions are not contraindications for getting the vaccine.
