Your lucky. I was put on Actemra and had 2 GCA relapses. Then went to Kevzara Injections which is specifically for PMR which precipitates GCA.

I too was on actemra, had 19 infusions and also had 2 major relapses. I have gca and pmr. I decided that it wasn't worth it any more as it elevated my cholesterol and triglycerides and had fatigue. As we all no, everyone is different and what works for one doesnt for another.
