Hello,
Update after 2nd shot:
Highs:
Lows:
Bottomline: IT IS WORKING. Cosentyx feels like the right treatment after 7 ongoing years of nonstop evolution.
Willl post again 5 days after the 3rd shot, which is tomorrow.
Thank you all, spreading hopefullness, taking the bright path.
Update after 2nd shot:
Highs:
- The thickness is gone in about 90%, although the patches stay the same. A bit less red, more pinkish. I guess it's a matter of time.
- Haven't used Clobetasol shampoo since the beggining of the treatment, to check what happened if I stopped using it. No psoriasis on my scalp. Didn't have much, enough to be a bit embarrassed when I went to the hairdresser.
- No more skin peaces when getting undressed. It used to be like christmas 3 weeks ago. That's a major breaktrough
- The confidence gained is amazing. I do gym with short sleeves. Still not enough to use short pants. We'll get there, I hope.
Lows:
- The fatigue: I'm having a hard time waking up before 9am. Feel exhausted. I'm a travel agent, so the work has been pretty slow since April. That's why I get to stay in bed longer, but damn it's something to ponder. It could be also because I'm pushing harder to go back to my pre-pandemic numbers on the treadmill, hitting 5 days a week the gym. But still, the tiredness is a bit beyond normal.
- Lack of vitamin D: In patagonia we are in cold season since March. We've had a good last weekend, but not enough to get that tan that I believe it will diminish the pinks, that now make pretty high contrast with the winter pale of my skin.
Bottomline: IT IS WORKING. Cosentyx feels like the right treatment after 7 ongoing years of nonstop evolution.
