@jeff97 again hearing your story helps me a lot. Thank you. My doctor did ask if I would consider Actemra. I need to see if my Medicare Advantage plan covers it.

@pah17 You've probably seen the posts about Actemra, but there are different ways to get it covered, depending on the insurance. Infusions of Actemra are covered under Part B of Medicare by some plans, and injections under Part D. Tyenne is a biosimilar to Actemra, and is covered by some plans.
