Think I will go ahead and do both the vaccines per rheumatologist advice. I’ll double check his advice when I contact him.
Thanks for your response.

I think I'll get them both too. I think they offer some benefit to me, even though I'm taking Actemra and won't get a full immune response. I got a covid booster last year after I started getting treatment for GCA and PMR, and I was very surprised at the complete lack of side effects from the booster. In the past I had very strong reactions to those shots.
