If Humira doesn't help, there are plenty more Bio's to try. Biological Treatments For Psoriasis
You took my lines Fred…
Indeed, and if Humira works that will be great. But remember, that with a lot of people the TNF medication in a certain amount of time probably will stop working, but there is a whole lot of other available.
Good Job talking to your rheum this way and indeed if your search for:
“A randomized placebo-controlled trial of methotrexate in psoriatic arthritis”
Then you will find the relevant article on which an article in the Pharmaceutisch weekblad is based, which you can find if you search for: “ MTX zinloos bij artritis psoriatica“
But already you did very very good, and your rheum is also a very good one, I have met worse.
I totally agree with Turnedlight, they should drop this treatment.
It is damaging and can cause much higher costs in later life that the cheap try that it is used for now.
