Dear Marcia115: I started with headaches, fatigue, weight loss & jaw pain. Then one day I lost sight in my right eye; it came back in few minutes, then it happened again. My Dr. had me go to ER, she thought I may of had a mini stroke. Spent 4 days in hospital, many tests, cat scans, MRI, Drs thought it was Giant cell arteritis & that was confirmed by a biopsy of the artery along my hairline above my eye. I started on 60 milligrams of Prednisone daily, I am now down to 12.5, next week 10, & am waiting to start Actemra by injection.
