Had Shingles shot and now have PMR

I had my first shingles shot in March 2021, developed PMR about 6 weeks later. I was a healthy 58 year old without any symptoms. I’ve been doing some research and many people seem to have the same side effects of the Shingrix vaccine…. I do not think I will get the second dose….

Hi Seggink, welcome. You'll notice that I moved your message to this existing discussion where others have reported developing PMR after receiving the first shingles shot.

You are encouraged to report vaccine adverse events to the US Department of Health and Human Services. Visit http://www.vaers.hhs.gov to file a report, or call 1-800-822-7967.

I know this is an old post. Do you mind if I ask a few questions about the vaccine and Pmr. Thank you
