I agree about the low dose Naltrexone, but my doctor did not want to prescribe it for me. He put me on hydroxychloroquine instead. Any experience with it? Of course, I am still on low dose prednisone too.

@vandyms1974, There is another discussion started by @joeblo746 where I shared some information from 2017 on hydroxychloroquine for PMR.

@joeblo746 might have some experience to share with you on hydroxychloroquine.

No, I do not. Too bad about your rheumy's aversion to it. It can be a game changer if it works for you. I guess the same can be said about hydroxychloroquin, too.
