I got a 2023 Covid 19 vaccine Oct 12, 2023 and 5 days later I was in pain in my neck, shoulders, arms, legs!!!
The Dr took blood test and said it was PMR 😭

Hello @janemcd, I would like to add my welcome to Connect along with @kberlyhouse and others. Sorry to hear your PMR is a result of the Covid vaccine. I've had 2 occurrences of PMR but neither were from Covid. Fortunately my PMR is in remission right now. There are many PMR discussions that you might find helpful for dealing with the PMR. Here is a link showing the search results for the discussions - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/search/discussions/?search=PMR+.

Have you started a treatment for the PMR?
