Anyone diagnosed with PMR after the Covid vaccine?
Polymyalgia Rheumatica (PMR) | Last Active: Jun 6 1:06pm | Replies (146)Comment receiving replies
In November 2021 I did my civic duty and I had the Pfizer booster shot.
5 days later I found myself paralyzed and unable to basically move as the pain was excruciating. I went to the ER, informed them that the only thing I did was to get the booster, mind you I never even had Covid. To make a long story "shorter", Doctor # 7 finally diagnosed me and through research; cone to find out that if you had the Pfizer shot and you are female, over 65, caucasian AND specifically of Scandinavian decent; there is a high probability of getting PMR. I thanked Pfizer for ruining my life. Pfizer is following my case but has yet to "apologize". Life has been hell, I also had 2 strokes twice. Prednisone & Humira but neither is making much difference. I tried all the other medications as well and did the Ivermectin protocol to no avail. So, my question is to find others who developed PMR from the shot.

I believe you will find my previous comments regarding this matter in this thread. I also contracted PMR within a week after my second shot, but luckily, mine was very mild. I only hurt when laying down, so it took months to diagnose. I started with 10 mg. of Prednisone and managed to wean off in about a year. I am a registered dietitian and eat a primarily plant-based, organic whole foods diet and I attribute this to my mild case and quick recovery. Good luck in your recovery.
I’m curious did you have any other health issues before your Pfizer vaccine?
I am 62 years old female and I was diagnosed with PMR in Augest 2021 after I received two shots of pfizer COVID vaccine. Unfortunatly I didn’t realize the connection between the vaccine and my diagnosis until I received the third shot and my Sed rate result came very elevated.
I was put on prednisone for two years but I had to stop due to devoloping arthritis.
Like you, my life has been hell and thanks to pfizer for ruining my life.
I came down with Covid end of March 2022. This happened 4 months after receiving the J&J Covid booster. I had no illnesses or health issues that would have caused the PMR. I was told any vaccine can cause PMR. I will not be having any vaccines any time in the future.
I am still fighting PMR and trying to taper down the prednisone. Currently on the autoimmune protocol diet and taking expensive supplements while under the care of a functional/naturopath physician. My rheumatologist is only interested in medications to treat the symptoms.

After four Moderna Covid vaccine shots over a three year period, my PMR symptoms began in December last year. I didn’t get properly diagnosed until February 6 of this year. Excruciating pain because my prednisone dose is still in its initial “ figuring it out” stage. I may be the only one who thinks my PMR was caused by Moderna Covid vaccines, but I was the poster child of health before all this mess began.
