I do feel better but have only been on Kevzara for 2 weeks. My rheumatologist said that it will take at least 2 weeks to feel an effect. I need to wait 6 weeks before tapering the prednisone from my present 6 mg by .5 mg every 3 weeks. At 3 months I get labs done to see if I have any of the side effects that show up in labs like high liver enzymes and low white cells.

Remember Kevzara is trying to control the PMR restart or flare caused by the taper of the prednisone. Many on this site have said it doesnt help. It wont help unless its a true PMR. The level of pain your feeling is most likely from the taper. The lack of cortisol causes the pain. So you may not necessarily feel any help from the drug.
