Is it safe to get the Corona Virus (COVID-19) vaccine with PMR?

I developed symptoms and was diagnosed with PMR after my second Moderna vaccine. Had absolutely no issues prior to the vaccine- my rheumatologist agrees it was the trigger.

I have a few questions for you as we try to gather more information about the issue -
Did you previously have Covid?
Do you have a history of any other inflammatory conditions, like arthritis? Or have you ever had an inflammatory reaction to any vaccine before, even a mild one?
Can you describe the length and severity of the symptoms, and whether they have since responded to treatment or resolved on their own?
Thanks for taking the time to tell us - we want to get a better idea of what people are dealing with as many are still trying to decide whether to get vaccinated.
