Great that your costs are all sorted.
As to what works for me, well for the past couple of years a lot of itching and ointments. Luckily I've not had a major flare up while not on anything this time... so far. Right after Taltz (and lazer light therapy for scalp which didn't help either) we were discussing Skyrizi and a few others as possibilities. My dermatologist was leaning one way and my rheumatologist was leaning another way and were just getting on the same page when the pandemic hit and I decided to hold off.
Right now I'm dealing with some other health issues and although I know I should get back on something to try to get better with my scalp psoriasis and having just been told not long before the pandemic that I was showing signs of psoriatic arthritis, I know I should get back in before things get worse. But I haven't. I manage the itching with moisturizers and also Taclonex (prescribed ointment) sometimes. The skin is manageable most days (meaning I've gotten used to it) and I'm fortunate that since my first flare of psoriasis it has pretty much stayed to my scalp and ears. Annoying yes but not nearly as bad as most have it.
Hoping it works well for you.
