Replies to "my PCP said no vaccines while on prednisone."
This is what my rheumatologist said:
Your prednisone is at a dose of < 20 mg and is not considered a contra indication to vaccinations
That's weird as my Rheumatology MD said no contraindications and said to get the vaccines. I've just been started on Kevzara. We always get the flu and covid boosters in the fall and have had zero side effects or problems. We never got Covid and haven't had the flu in years. Looks like a lot of people are trying to say vaccines caused PMR.

I’ll see what my rheumatologist says.
