@bt56 I am still taking Actemra; I will have my 12th weekly injection on 5/22. It is helping. Especially since my endocrinologist gradually increased the dosage of Glimepiride - the third diabetic medication I take in addition to Metformin & Januvia - from 1 to 4 mg. daily. My blood glucose test results have improved. Glimepiride can cause low blood glucose, so you need to be diligent about your testing and length of time between meals and make sure you have Glucose Tablets available. Since my January diagnosis, my Prednisone dosage has gone from 40 to 60 to 50 and is back to 40 now.
