Cosentyx for psoriatic arthritis Fred's journey

[Caroline]

Time for a quick update.

20 weeks in and it's still going very well, in fact it seems to be getting better as time goes on. I've had a lot of days with no feeling of psoriatic arthritis, and even on damp days (those used to be the worse for me) I would say my score only went up to about a 3. Certainly not enough to stop me doing things.

I can still feel the psoriatic arthritis if I'm just sitting around or when I wake up, but it's mild and soon wears off once I start moving around. I no longer wake up with that locked up feeling and I'm now up to walking 4 Km without any problems.

I'm a lot more mobile than I was on Stelara and feeling a lot more active, this in turn is making me feel happier and life is a lot better than it was before I started on Cosentyx.

If you are on 3 you are about on my level , and indeed damp days do have their effects. But I can walk much further than you , and dance and cycle. Great that your locked feeling is now gone when standing up. That must be a great relief for you.
