I have been having a hard time finding a primary care physician that knows anythings about PsA. I called Cosentyx first about my side effects before going to a clinic for treatment for my UTI. They said yes, this is a side effect, and you could get one so early, and it was ok to treat with antibiotics.
I went to a doctor and explained. He had seen me before. He said no, its from sex. Only your psoriasis would be infected... after googling in front of me. I reiterated that I do not have psoriasis except on my toenails but rather psoriatic arthritis and that I am not sexually active. Then I told him AGAIN what Cosentyx had said. I bet you he still ran a panel for sexually transmitted diseases and pregnancy. I have a doctor for that, thank you. She's great but closed on Mondays or I would have gone there instead.
A good doctor is hard to find.
