Polymyalgia Cause
Posted , 11 users are following.
I have only had this condition for about three months. I was discussing it with a collegue who said that her sister thought she had contracted it after her Flue and Pneumonia jab. Mine started just after I had had the injections. Has anyone else noticed this or heard of other occurrences?

You probably develope it.
Anyway up, on a scale of one to ten the pain reaches about eleven.
Not funny but you have to joke about it or else you'ld cry.

Pain in flexing etc. Hard to tell if it's a flare or something else. At 85 it could be anything.
2 years PMR. Now at 7 mg pred.

I also began to experience the severe symptoms of PMR within days of having my flu jab and did think caused it.
I do wonder if it was lying in wait and the flu vaccination awoke it, or maybe it's just sheer coincidence. Flu vaccination ingredients differ each year but are given at the same time of year and around this time my PMR symptoms start to return with the cold weather, maybe therefore the time of year has something to do with exacerbating the symptoms. I have not been tapering since about November and will stay on 3mg until spring. I have had PMR for 2 years now.
all the best

We may also want to be asking people what makes them feel better, what makes them begin to have hope that PMR will eventually fade away.
