They are expensive but covered under the NHS, you have to have failed on the Oral treatments before going onto them (which you have done) so I would push harder. Some dermatologists may not think you have enough psoriasis and/or psoriatic arthritis, but you've had it for 30 years and tried most things so your chance should be good.
