Thanks Heron, validates my thoughts that the shingles vaccine started the GCA.

That can happen with any vaccine for some people… for others it doesn’t…and as we have said on many occasions, if a vaccine doesn’t trigger PMR or GCA then something else will.

I credit the Shingrix series for enabling me to finally start being successful in efforts to reduce from a flare. 🤷‍♀️

Fascinating research (although I feel for the poor mice!) - I hope someday this can result in medications or even surgeries that can bring us all back to health. Thanks for sharing!

Both of the above reference the same Accelerated Article Review, No. s41586-024-07469-y :
