Okay so first the picture. Yes I know it looks better and past couple of days has felt better. So maybe Taltz is working! I should be more excited but I'd rather give it a bit longer to make certain before celebrating too quickly. (Plus, I don't like the injections!)
So, I tried numbing the area. Nope, although I could touch the skin and feel nothing, I still felt the injection! I really didn't think it would work as it's mostly the medicine that stings and that's under the skin. But I will say that this time the "after pain" or whatever you want to call it was much less. Probably only a minute and then back to normal. I do think they use a slicer instead of a needle (actually just a large needle but I do always have a little blood from it)
Hoping no reaction this time and hoping the psoriasis keeps up clearing!
I just wish it was the Stelara or Cosentyx that worked!!! However, I have NOT noticed an improvement with joints so we'll have to see how that goes.
