How long to try treatments?

[Fred]

Difficult question. I have given things up because they caused more problems, or I gave them up because I felt something better was on offer.

We are all different and psoriasis is so difficult to treat. What works for me may not work for your son, and even if it does work for me it may just stop working one day.

There has been talk of hitting young or early diagnosed people early on with a Bio and stopping its progression. Who knows it may work, but it's still early days and needs more guinea pigs.

*I'll move this thread to Psoriasis And Psoriatic Arthritis Topics as it's not an introduction and will hopefully get you ore answers.

Fred, I am very curious about this. Can you tell me where you read, or heard about the Bio's stopping the progression? I would like to read up on this before we see our derm next so I can make a clear decision.

I'll see if I can remember where I posted it. ...............................................  

Ok I think it could have been this thread: Could Cosentyx be better than first thought for psoriasis

Edit. On my search for that thread I also found this that may interest you: Canada gets Stelara for adolescents
