I was like you. Very active. Hated to even sit and drink coffee. Go go go… and then After being in excruciating pain and begging for answers for 6+ weeks, I was diagnosed with GCA. Mine even affected my tongue which is very rare. I’m thinking the Covid vac had something to do with it, too. My next physical after getting vaccinated, my pcp found my red blood cells were enlarged. It wasn’t due to drinking alcohol or from being anemic. They are still enlarged. Did this happen to anyone else after the CVacs?

I’m sure the Phizer vaccine caused my PMR. But before being diagnosed with PMR I was diagnosed with DVT’s!!! Which am positive was caused from the Phizer vaccine! A week after I was diagnosed with DVT’s my husband was also was diagnosed with DVT’s in his leg that have calcified. He was having terrible trouble with his right foot swelling and pain and numbness and his dr or his foot dr did not think of blood clots until a few months after doctoring I got diagnosed with DVT. (We had been having many many leg cramps through that time). He got checked at Urgent care (where I was diagnosed and sent to ER put in xarelto and sent home.) He was sent to ER had surgery by a vascular surgeon but the surgeon said he couldn’t even penetrate the long clots in his right leg. He had a scan of legs a few months earlier before the vaccine and had no clots. After he received the Phizer vaccine he was diagnosed with this and today still has the long clots. He has them in his veins and arteries!!! (Full of them)
We are thanking God that he hasn’t lost his leg!!
Then I was diagnosed with PMR after not being able to cover myself up and use my hands and arms and pain like bursitis throughout!!
I’m on 20 mg prednisone thst took pain away over night but I’m left with numbness, tingling, and electricity feeling throughout my body. Numbness also in my tongue, mouth, face etc.
It’s terrible!! My left hand is always numb and checked with hand Dr because my GP thought it’s carpal tunnel. It’s not!!

Yes after 1st Covid vax March 2021 experienced fatigue,rash,myalgia,mysterious lump above vax site. After 3rd c-vax(booster) December 2021–2 ER visits and full blown PMR.
