I had allergy shots at age 30 to 33 for 3 years in the 1970s while living in Germany. They helped with my grass, tree, pollen allergies since. At age 73 I was diagnosed with PMR an auto immune disease. After all those years could it be connected to the allergy shots?

Makes you wonder doesn't it? I had never heard of this before until Carlosroman34 made the post. It's very interesting.

Hello, nice to meet you, what I have seen is that in most cases the autoimmune disease appears during the course of immunotherapy, however there are some cases where the disease develops some time later.

I attach the data of an article of 3 cases of sarcoidosis after SIT.

Sarcoidosis following specific immunotherapy: more than just coincidence?
