I was hammered by allergies before I had any shots. After the second shot my allergies got a lot better. Probably totally cured my allergies. Magic.

Except it didn't because past week or so they've been back again.

The second Pfizer shot made my allergies better for about two days. They're back :(

Could it be because the immune system is busy with something else than fighting harmless agents ?

It’s a known strategy.

One guy infested himself with various worms to give his immune system something productive to do.

I myself didn’t really eat for a month once. That ended a multi month long flare. Idea is it kills off immune system for awhile.

Your body has a lot of possible immune responses. Runny nose, inflammation, fever. My guess is that it just switches strategies to something less annoying.
