Hello everyone,

I have been reading posts on this site for about 2 years now . And I do appreciate the the knowledge that I’ve gain from reading the comments and recommendations I’ve read. I have been on prednisone for about two years now. I am currently taking 7 mg .

I received My Covid shoot a week ago, I don’t know if I’m having a flare or a response to the moderna shot. But i am a lot more sore this week

Looking forward to hearing your comments

I felt a bit ropey for a few hours on day 4 and so did OH - we both had the Moderna vaccine. The second didn't seem to bother him but I am so tired - and sleeping like a log!

I’d have to say my arm wasn’t sore from the shot. But my body is sore today and has been for a couple days . I’m just not sure but I may be having a flare. I was feeling almost pain free at 7mg and I was considering lowering to 6mg by the end of this month , but right now I’m not sure. I’ll just see how it goes

Not Moderna, but Pfizer, and painfully stiff today, especially arm which received injection 2 days ago. (5 mg pred)
