Are you taking Plaquenil (Hydroxychloroquine) for PMR?

I was taking Hydroxychloroquine 20mg for treatment of non-ankylosing spondyloarthropathy (na-Spa) for about 3months. Then I developed PMR. Has anyone else ever experienced this sequence of events? Could this be an adverse reaction of Hydroxychloroquine?

I have never had a negative reaction to Hydroxychloroquine and I’ve been on it for 18 years. I too had PMR last year, and I have never been pain free. I am much better after a six month course of methylprednisolone but never completely cured.
