I guess all of this is so new that the data hasn’t really caught up yet. I suspect, in the end, that we will see analysis that says that certain doses of certain vaccines cause PMR flares. Thanks for sharing your experience

There is a lot of factors in this. It is the opposite for me. On no PMR meds and the PMR flared up, the first shot helped me a great deal and I am awaiting the second shot to see if it will get better. I didn't test positive for the C-19 at all but apparently might have had it due to me having the flare up. The PMR must have been fighting it off untill the vaccine started to work. Plus blood type( mine is 0- ) has something to do with it also. And maybe other meds/supplements that you are taking may interfere with the way all works together.
