Anyone diagnosed with PMR after the Pfizer vaccine?

Yes, two weeks after I got my second Pfizer shot I started with issues. At first I thought I had a serious case of Lyme because it had once hit my spine. Anyway, 2 years later I am down to 2 mg of prednisone a day. Right now I am dealing with fatigue, has anybody dealt with that?

Hi @npostusa, You are not alone with the fatigue. There is another discussion you might find helpful.

Pretty similar here, Lyme and babesiosis 8 years ago tapering Prednisone and having lots of fatigue now. Autoimmune issues came on after 2nd booster shot. The emergence of lumbar spinal stenosis isn't helping much.
