I’m glad the KEVZARA is working for you and others! I seem to be the oddball here. am on 12.5 prednisone and was also on methotrexate. I recently started on KEVZARA along with the other two. The plan was to be taken off the methotrexate after one month and stay on KEVZARA while tapering off prednisone.
After taking my 2nd shot, my Rheumatologist called me and told me to discontinue the methotrexate and stop the KEVZARA injections as my WBC count dropped to 1.9 from normally 10-11. My side effect is the oddball out there. On a good note…I was feeling very positive and felt better taking those two shots! I’ll get there again, but have to get my WBC count back up first.

I hope your blood work gets back in order right away so that I can start back on treatment.
