Hi, new here. Found this place while trying to figure out what is wrong with me, doctors can't figure it out. All the symptoms appear to be what I've been experiencing I've contacted my doctor and hopefully they will refer me to a specialist that can help diagnose this. Pain in shoulders and neck started after receiving my flu shot and covid shot about 5 months ago.

Welcome @jeanlea, Doctors have trouble figuring a lot of us out so you are not alone there. Hopefully you can get an appointment with a rheumatologist soon. @dadcue created a couple of discussions with videos that might help you learn a little more about PMR and it's symptoms. It really helps to be your own advocate for your health and learn as much as you can about your condition and symptoms.
