Can PMR be induced by Exercise

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.

As I say, I do not fault those who took the vaccine and certainly not if they felt they were helping others. I'm just saying I wasn't convinced it was needed. All my family and the vast majority of my friends took it. Some have suffered consequences; however, I totally understand people believed they were helping others. It's all good no matter what decision a person made for him/herself.
