I had 3 Pfizer vaccines then for my 4th I switched to Moderna to "mix it up" and hopefully increase my immunity. Instead, within 2 weeks the stiffness and pain started - 2 months later diagnosed as PMR. It has taken me 1 year to get from 40 mg to 2.5 mg prednisone. Ain't no way I am getting another Covid booster while I still have PMR and am on prednisone. Right now, I am not planning to get another Covid vaccine ever.
I think I am going to skip my annual flu vaccine and the RSV vaccine until I get over PMR or at least get in remission since I guess we live with it forever.
Just my thoughts!

Thanks for your thoughts… I feel the same way… however my doctor suggested it was ok to get all if taking less than 10mg of prednisone… but going to mask, wash hands and avoid crowds instead as I am currently in 9 mg!
