Hello @hoosierlarry, Welcome to Connect. @ropnrose, @dadcue, @terrib2, @linda7 and others have discussed Actemra infusions in another discussion here - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/actemra-infusions/ and may have some experience to share.

When were you first diagnosed with Temporal Arteritis?
