Hi @davidsonk, Welcome to Connect. Sorry I missed your first post in the COVID discussion and hoping the new treatment helps. Do you mind sharing what type of infusion you will soon begin having? Will you be tapering off of prednisone along with the infusion?

Orencia will be the drug they are using for the infusion. Just hoping my insurance covers this as it is expensive. Doing it by infusion bypasses the liver and kidneys, which should be better.
