Hi @patriciaco, Welcome to Connect. Sorry to hear that you developed PMR after getting a flu vaccine and pneumonia shot. It's ugly no matter how you get it. How long did it take you to finally taper off of the cortisone?

First I had to get the PMR under control, after that it took about a year.
I started using marijuana patches for pain and was able to get off the
cortisone.
