@dadcue I was offered Hydroxychloroquine and decided against it due to the side effects - here are the ones of most concern -
These are the ones clinicians watch most closely.

Retinal toxicity — maculopathy, vision changes, risk increases with long‑term use
Cardiac conduction abnormalities — QT prolongation, arrhythmias
Hypoglycemia — can be severe
Serious skin reactions — SJS/TEN, DRESS
Neuropsychiatric effects — mood changes, depression, suicidal thoughts
Myopathy and neuropathy — proximal muscle weakness, sensory changes
Bone marrow suppression — anemia, leukopenia, thrombocytopenia

Not my cup of tea - and this is just the tier one side effects. My PMR caused skin fungus, anemia, neuropathy and cardia issues (pericardial effusion) - why would I want to take a pill that might pile on.

Your body seems to be able to adjust to meds easily. I am at the opposite end. I was having hormone problems (thyroid and parathyroid), cardiac problems, GI issues lead to diverticulitis, edema with excessive ankle swelling while on Tyenne for only 10 weeks. The PMR pain was gone.
