I had a very similar experience. I am a healthcare worker and had one of the first vaccines. However, I was also working up to 25 hour shifts during the peak of the pandemic. My rheumatologist isn’t sure if the vaccine or the extreme stress set off the PMR. I have done Olympic weightlifting and Crossfit for years and am 54 (dx approx 3 yes ago). I literally feel your pain. I am not familiar with the body I now have and it can be very discouraging. I definitely find support and encouragement on this site. Glad you’re here☺️

I am assuming you are much younger than I am. Do you know if there are any university studies not CDC-funded looking at COVID Vaccine and PMR! What keeps me going is staying optimistic that the PMR will dissipate or become more manageable. It appears the HealthCare industry does not want to talk about this issue. I hope you continue to improve. I would love to run again one day.
