Hello All,
I have not been on this site for several years. I was diagnosed with GCA and PMR back in 2016/2017. Life has been stressful…our neighborhood burned down and our house was the only one which was saved by the fire department…only until this year a huge redwood tree (8ft in diameter) fell on the house and split it in half. Yes, my husband and I were in the house and were not injured. Shortly thereafter I got Covid. I tested positive for over 30 days. Afterwards/during my GCA and PMR symptoms returned. I had only been off of Prednisone for 8 months. My inflammation markers are rising even though I went back on 40 mg Prednisone. Next week I will start Actemra. Just curious, did anyone else have a re-occurrence of GCA and PMR? How did it go?
Thanks for your feedback.
