Newbie with an oldie disease

[Spotless]

Hi Spotless! Nice to meet you  

I started on Stelara early this year after trying Humira.

I cleared within about a week, and still clear at the mo. It's been amazing.

Sadly I've had a flare of psa symptoms which I attribute to going on Stelara but the derm and rheumy I've just seen say it's not the drug at fault.

I think most people don't experience this so don't worry about it, and I hope it clears your skin too  

Hi Turnedlight,
Thanks for sharing your experience with me. Did you have any side effects using Stelara?
So your PSA started when you started using Stelara? Mine stated towards the end of using Humira. It was very painful when I was completely off Humira waiting for Stelara to start. I taking Naproxen which has helped with the pain and can walk now but my right foot is swollen and I have a sausage finger which doesn't bend. It's just awful having one disease and then having another one now too. Totally unfair!
