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

I've had the five COVID shots and flu shot with no flare up of PMR or GCA. I'm off prednisone now.

I once thought my onset of PMR was related to my first COVID-19 vac...but since then I've a had a total of three more COVID-19 vaccinations plus a flu vac and have had zero flare ups and continue to taper 1mg/month now at 6mg/day. I now believe the onset of my PMR was caused when I had fallen like a sack of potatoes on my right side...well a least coincidentally.
