John Mills of Vasculitis UK is urgently seeking anecdotal evidence to present at a NICE meeting over the use of Actemra/tocilizumab in GCA. Please look at this post:

He would be very pleased to hear from our US contributors who have been using it - and wants both positive and less positive experiences.

Will the experiences shared at the meeting be posted? I am facing the Actemra decision and would love to hear other folks experience. Thank you.
