I hope it helps! With the recent approvals of biologics for PMR I wonder if it will be more common to treat it with biologics as opposed to long term prednisone, as it is with other inflammatory conditions… If only it were easier and more reliable to get insurance to cover them for more people. Wishing you all the best.

@emo @daenika87 I am looking at old posts and hope you both are well -- if you look ta the conversation i started about this year's ARC meeting -there will be a "great Debate" about using biologicals in PMR patients :
