Symptom narrative

I have always been an extremely healthy and very active person. The last time I was sick enough to miss a day of school or work, I was in the 8th grade. I went thru 4 yrs of High School, 4 years of College, 36 years of Work and 11 years of retirement without ever being sick. I received my first Pfizer Covid-19 vaccination on 2/15/21, my second on 3/8/21 and a booster on 12/17/21. Beginning in January of 2022, I developed severe Chest Congestion. It was cleared up with a prescription of Prednisone. I have had the same Chest Congestion develop every Winter since my Covid-19 Booster Vaccination. A 7 to 10 day prescription of Prednisone will temporarily clear it up but it always returns. I've had chest x-Rays (all clear I've been prescribed a Z-pack which did nothing, I've visited my PCP with this condition numerous times. I've visited an Ear, Nose & Throat Specialist twice. The only thing that helps temporarily is a prescription of 7 to 10 days of prednisone but the condition always returns.
