I am taking prednisone (4 mg.), methotrexate and now Kevzara as well. I still have some pain in my shoulders though nothing like the original symptoms. After 2 doses of Kevzara, no real change. I had assumed the methotrexate was responsible for my hair loss and am weaning off it by 1 pill/week. So far no improvement after reducing from 6 to 4 pills. However, prednisone can also cause hair loss and, unfortunately, has been the most effective drug for the PMR. Which is most likely the culprit--methotrexate or prednisone? I've been through baldness after chemo for breast cancer and really don't want to repeat the experience!
