Hello @hopeinal, I don't have any experience with Kevzara but there are quite a few comments by others on the side effects. Here's a search of Connect with links to comments by others while you wait for members with experience to respond - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/search/comments/?search=Kevzara%20side%20effects.
Here's some information on the side effects if you haven't already seen it:

I'm not on prednisone now but have taken it in the past when my PMR was active. I also have the thin skin that bruises and tears quite easily. Have you discussed the side effects with your doctor?

Thanks! Yes I did bring it up to my rheumatologist and he suggested putting me on Kevzara soon. But then he moved to another state so I wasn't able to follow up. The practice he sent his 3000 patients to can't see me until late August or September. However I think my PCP could prescribe it for me.
