Let's see how I go with Stelara, would love to hear more stories about others who is using this biological and how long they have been on it.
Enbrel lasted 2 years for me. Humira 3 years. So I'm a little sceptical of yet another biologic that will start to work and fail. This flare has been dreadful it's the worst I've been in a long time. So I'm a little scared of having to go through this every time a drug stops working... it's a vicious cycle.
You have your highs and then you have your worst lows...
