Pneumonia Vaccine (Prevnar) OK with PMR?

Any vaccination can cause a problem - this was true before PMR and is still true today for each of us. My second Shringrix vaccination case caused a medical storm and PMR is one of many problems I have delt with ever since. I still get vaccinations but I never get more than one at a time, I space them 2-4 weeks apart and I make sure I am in the best health possible before getting each one. Since I had my Shringrix vaccination I have gotten all the Covid vaccinations, flu shots, and Tetnas (mine had expired). My doctor says I have a love-hate relationship with vaccinations - I would agree. I really wish I could avoid them, but I don't want a bad case of what they protect us from either. This year I need RSV, Covid and Flu - I currently have a respiratory problem so who knows when I will be able to start my Fall vaccination plan. I wish you the best, take care and you are right to wonder about this. Hope my few words helped.

You are smart to space any vaccines you get!!
They were going to give my newborn grandson six (6!!) vaccines on one well baby visit! Told my daughter in law to not let them do that—I told her only two at the most at one time. He is a healthy 10 year old today and gets his flu shots and other boosters as needed .
I currently have a stubborn case of bronchitis so I’m putting off getting my vaccines as well….
