So am I reading it right Kat that you will need 20 sessions and they expect the benefits to only last between 3 to 6 months
After that will you be able to repeat the treatment
I will miss the ear photos by the way KatÂ
Fingers crossed for you look forward to hearing how it works
Right now they have me down for 10 sessions. That can be changed to more or less as needed. I go twice per week and it's a bit of an inconvenience, but I piggy back my physical therapy right behind the laser therapy once a week since they are located very near each other so it's not too bad.
The 3 - 6 months is average, it's possible to go longer (or not) so that's just a guideline and then yes, you repeat as needed.
However, I do still have the issue of dealing with joint stiffness to consider as well. I think the dermatologist wanted to try another biologic, one of the new ones but the rheumatologist nixed those so we're here for now. I guess we'll see how it all works out, but I'm beginning to feel like a guinea pig!
But happily right now things have improved a bit so I'll take it. That's the main thing after all.
