Kevzara (sarilumab) to treat PMR

Have been on prednisone 20 since Jan and unable to reduce beyond 15 . Labs were elevated so back to 20. Took first dose of Kevzara a few days ago. Anxious to see if this helps reduce my prednisone. Labs were all normal but I still get pain behind head and shoulders middle of day.

@gmanurse, you described my troubles with tapering prednisone almost exactly. I have also started on Kevzara and am praying for resolution with labs and pain levels. Best to all of us on this journey!
