You can feel that.

I don't think I would be able to cope with somewhere like Holland or the UK come to that, I imagine Holland being damp but the UK is a lot damper than here.

I want my dried up lawn back.  

You are right about he uk being damp, not ideal for arthritis

I can't understand the weather patterns at the moment, we are being promised 30+ degrees next week, so surely if we get dry weather you should in central France  

Freemeteo is saying damp again for the rest of this week.

If this keeps up we will lose our spuds to blight.

I have never known it like this since I've been here. 12 years now.

I remember an elderly lady attributing a drought to Russian shenanigans. She also boasted of her granddaughter's horticultural experiment being conducted at her home until a friend pointed out that she was growing marijuana. I hope your specialists come up with some answers for you soon, Fred. I was interested to read of the perispinal usage of etanercept for cns inflammation as it raises the possibility of slow release forms of biologic agents being administered at or near the intended site of action.

Thank you Bill. Yes she has said my next step is Cosentyx, but at my last visit it still wasn't available in France.

As it looks like the weather is finally on the turn for the good again (fingers crossed) I thought I would check my scores.

Psoriasis score: Down from 9 to 2

Psoriatic arthritis score: Down from 18 to 6 *This had gone up even more but I couldn't be bothered to check.

So it's definitely the damp that has been making it worse. The weather is still far from what it should be for the time of year, and I feel like I'm coming out of the Winter again.

Will be passing this all on to my dermatologist (Though she has probably read my posts already) at my next appointment in 3 weeks.

That's good to hear that things are improving for you p, your scores are coming down nicely..
Let's hope with the weather changing you will continue to improve

Yes I hope so too, but it does look like Stelara has done all it can for me which is a shame.

Let's hope before long Cosentyx or Taltz will become available to you
