Update: Took my two maintenance jabs today of Bimzelx.
First I'm going to mention the psoriatic arthritis as that was the main reason I wanted to try it, and I have to say it's the best bio ever. I have hardly any pain to talk about apart from the occasional knuckle stiffness, but that soon goes once I get moving.
Some simple things like opening a jar or lifting a bag of shopping is now so easy ..................... ok not all jars (some of those are so tight)
but the satisfaction feels so good, also no pain in my toes and that is probably a first as even though other bio's helped, none ever stopped the odd toe looking like a radish.
I have a few jobs lined up and it will soon be getting busy in the garden again and I'm looking forward to doing stuff again, I'll keep my psoriatic score on 1 and wait to see what my dermatologist says in May .................. who knows she may say it's in remission.
Next the psoriasis. I'm keeping my score at 2 as I still get the odd little flare, it's nothing big and I can soon get it down with some diprosone for a couple of days. I was expecting to get a flare this past few weeks as I had my cataract surgery, but it was just a little bit more than usual and I got some in my eyebrow but coconut oil soon got rid of it.
So yes I'm very pleased with the way it's going, it's been just over one year since starting and I'm looking forward to it continuing to do just what I want it to do.
Happy
