PMR , immunocompromised, and boosters

[Danrower]

I found this article about our (PMR patients) antibody reaction to the Covid vaccinations, and our qualifying for the booster as we may be considered immunocompromised. My understanding is that we are considered to have "iRMD", as referenced in the article.

I'll repost with the link, immediately following. (So it won't be blocked.)

You aren't on patient,info here! We let the links through - unless it turns out to be undesirable when we check

Eileen how wonderful . Haven’t been on here for so long. I have been collecting other auto immune diseases , so I never know what is causing me pain . I am finally going down to 1mg . U were the first person to give me advice. I do hope you are doing well .

Dan rower lovely to see a name from the past. Wonderful to see another person still surviving this PMR. R u nearly recovered . I have not been on here for so long .

Good to hear from you Flutter. I was down to zero a few times, but with knee replacement, then infection and revision a year later., all sparking PMR response, now down to 2 MG. I am resigned to my constant dragon companion, PMR with RS3PE, even if it is silent, for the rest of my days.On this topic, I've had the booster, with some guilt, and gratitude.

About two weeks ago I had my Pfizer booster and my son had his Moderna booster. Neither of us nor my daughter have had any bad reaction at any time
