I was at abt 8.5 prednisone when I started Kevzara.
Took 3 1/2 months to taper off prednisone….a very conservative approach.
Kevzara takes up to 3 months to kick in, so I can’t tell you when it actually did.
After that I would use Tylenol for Arthritis as a supplement when ever I did serious activity, e-bike, play and walk the golf course, hike etc.
Working thru returning to a full life, pain free.
At 9 months I hit my 2 yr mark of “most likely” time my PMR started, and it was like the “lights went up” and felt just GREATTTTT.
Note: at 6 months my blood work was “off” so I was switched to shots every 3 wks, with retest of blood work. (Side effects of Kevzara)
Bingo, numbers good and stayed at 3 wk intervals.
I’m a 79yo female with no other medical issues.
Lastly….hoping today’s Dr appt stops the Kevzara 🤞.
PMR is the pits. Hope my story helps you with your journey.
