Yes, I was very fortunate. Kevzara was US FDA approved the month of my first rheum appointment. My rheum, internal medicine, and endocrinology practices are all within one large practice, affiliated with a medical school. So everyone had a running start when it came to Kevzara. The rheums had their plan and tinelines ready tho.my Internal Med Dr had told me they get folks off Pred within 2 yrs when he referred me, about 6 months prior. Also my rheumatologist is a geriatric rheumatologist, so I've had many times to appreciate that little added bit of his training. He knows more about aging than I do, LOL.

I've owned Australian Shepards for many years.

I'm glad to hear things are going well. Did you immediately go on the Kevzara after the PMR dx or were you on prednisone first and then discontinued due to poor response?
