where do you live @spiker if you don't mind me asking. I think there is still enrollment in Novartis IL17 trials . Or some other clinical trial or study that might be out there. My friend's rheumatologist had doses of Kevzara for him " to try" . I hope you have enough time in your appointment to discuss all you wish to .

I guess depending on your relationship with your rheumatologist , you can ask what he/she thinks of this figure in this paper that shows the responses of PMR patients . Also, I never could get a word in , but I wanted to her to tell me how her other PMR patients were doing : ( - I call this to your attention because not only does this forum allow you to share and discuss PMR -progress, the image of the graphed data was enlightening to me. SO - turns out I was a " rapid responder and in sustained recovery " I tapered from 30 mg to ( May 2023) to zero Sept 2024. No return of active disease , fingers crossed !
But , however you are responding , you are not alone ! : )
