Auto-immune After Covid Vaccine ?

A MyPsoriasisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Has anyone else became auto-immune after these covid vaccines. The timing is perfect for me. After my vaccines I slowly became covered with psoriasis from head to toe. I do not think they had enough time to research these shots. Now I know why so many people were so against these shots .

Hello I posted this on my page and other places but from my own personal experience, I had a significant increase in skin issues after Covid booster shots. I really noticed after my Moderna shots. I had five in total. I didn't put 2 and 2 together until almost a year after my 3rd and 4th booster( Moderna) #5 was Pfizer. I had a rather small case of psoriasis . After the Moderna shots it has gone to every area of my body. Mostly small patches , I would say there is a 500% increase in patches. I am no medical expert and I was pro vaccine but now I regret it to some degree. I will not get another booster until they can prove to me that this garbage did not effect my skin. Of course big pharma will deny it because like someone else said here, there would be millions of lawsuits. So yes I already had a mild form of psoriasis but in my opinion the boosters ( at least Moderna ) made it much worse. Yes this disease is hereditary they say but I do not know of anyone in my immediate family that had it. So how I got it in the first place remains a mystery.. There are many with way more education in the medical field than me who dispel what I have said but the experts are only repeating what big pharma says because there is nothing else to go on, but there is too many of us that have had the same negative circumstances to be a coincidence . These vaccines were rolled out in record time and although they may have had good intentions ( I think it was $$$$$ ) and there was some urgency, I don't think there was adequate time to discover all the side effects and now we have to suffer even more. Some days I feel like I have shingles my skin burns so bad. Never had this before. Kinda depressed about the whole thing . The little people will never be able to go after the pharma giants ; who raked in billions, unfortunately , and no amount of medical replies can dispute my own experience and I will remain convinced in what I have stated above. Have a good day all.

There is no doubt in my mind that Covid injections caused a flare up . Have had PSA for 7 years without any large breakouts of psoriasis/ just small patches on my elbows .
All of a sudden legs were covered in such large spots that itched , bled and made me useless for a month .
Don’t buy hereditary theory, no one in my family has it but me . Looked into distant relatives , 0 psoriasis.

That’s great William, I’m glad to hear that it is working for you. My Rheumatologist tried to put me on Taltz but UH said no. I’m guessing that they want me to try Humera first, but I’m honestly not sure about biologics because I reacted so badly to Otezla, so I bolted. 😅 I finally got my flair under control so I’m happy about that. I’m also not sure if I have PSA or just osteoarthritis.

Hey HeidiW, Ihave been on Skyrizi for about a year and a half now and no flare ups. I don't know where I would be now because I was in bad shape, skin and mental health was really bad. I was to my breaking point .
