Anyone Else Had A Flare Up After Their Covid Vaccination?

A MyPsoriasisTeam Member asked a question šŸ’­
Hampshire, United Kingdom

Had my first dose of the astra zenica vaccine nearly 3 weeks ago and my psoriasis has been so bad since. I've been managing to more or less keep it under control for nearly 4yrs and can't really put it down to anything else triggering this flare up, just wondered if anyone else had experienced the same?

After 2 years of vaccines and boosters (4) I have a chronic "scalp psoriasis" that responds to nothing! Only had one mild case before this. Thankful for the vaccines but a tough choice. They rev-up your immune response, so it makes sense to me. Also, I take levothyroxine.

My Gutate Psoriasis really began after my first Covid vaccine. I had both Moderna shots and it went wild. I am 73 years old and just had a very mild patch in my hair, which I controlled for years. Now I have a severe case all over my body. Not sure if it is related to vaccine, but that is the only major change that has happened.

I had both Moderna shots and had my FIRST major flare of gutate psoraisis. I am 73, never been sick...only a slight scalp psoraisis. After vaccines, my body is covered with red sores. I have a very severe case. Will start biologics soon.
I think it must have reacted to the vaccine.
