@stonewheel - I haven't seen my doctor yet about it, but I'm going to schedule a follow-up with my rheumatologist to discuss. My allergy doc said I could get a Kenalog injection every 3 months for allergy symptoms, it'll be interesting to see if the relief happens again after my next shot. Keeping fingers crossed.

🤞🏼
I want to know what he says.

@amroo
Curious. What did your doctor or rheumatologist say at your follow-up. Is Kenalog a viable stand-alone PMR treatment? Can the injections be tapered over maybe a one or two year period?
