Can PMR be induced by Exercise

I will probably make enemies with this comment, but I refused the covid shot because I've always had an interest in health, and even moreso after I was diagnosed with PMR, which is an auto-immune disorder and I am certain stress contributed...I never thought that a one size fits all shot would be the answer and it bothered me that there was never mention of how we could strengthen our immune systems - just pushed the shot. I don't fault anyone that decided to take it - they really pushed fear (unreasonably so with false stats, etc. and models) so I understand. But, I am so grateful that I never took the shot. I know many, many people that now have weakened immune systems from it...I pray for all of them...and my suggestion Linda, is stay off the news. We don't need stress when we are already dealing with life's stresses (i.e. death of family members that cause dissention).

I do not regret getting the COVID vaccine because my main motivation was to help end the pandemic and protect other people by not being a carrier. The same with years of taking the flu shot as a health care provider even though I overreacted to it about 50% of the time. I worked with an elderly population and did not want to be responsible for someone's illness or death. That said, I am not going to even consider taking any vaccines until I get over PMR. My rheumatologist commented about the long list of vaccines that were due, but he totally understood my concerns and removed the list from my chart.
