Hello @leerow60, Welcome to Connect. I can't begin to imagine how difficult your journey with GCA, PMR, Scleroderma, RA and more has been for you. I'm sorry to hear that the steroids aren't working for you. You mentioned they are going to try Actemra next. There is another discussion on the medication that you might find helpful where others have shared their experience:
--- Actemra (Tocilizumab) to treat PMR??: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/actemra-tocilizumab-to-treat-pmr/
Have you started on Actemra yet?
