HI everyone..
It seems everyone who has tried diets respond differently and everyone reacts differently to meds. Food has never changed my P.
Then tried DEMARDs all made me sick. So now waiting to try biologic drugs. We all have had our experiences to share for sure. I have never had any change in my psoriasis or psoriatic arthritis by diet. I have controlled imy psoriasis and fortunate to keep it in remission using occlusion since a child. Psoriatic arthritis is another challenge altogether.
This immune disease has many scientific clinical trials that have shown that the IL-17 or IL-23 and many other pathways thru the immune system causes P. Many bio drugs shut down these pathways.
Who knows what sets P. off in the first place. Hereditary...in my family... Other's not necessarily. We all have it and it comforting to know we can share our stories. There is a lot more clinical studies on this disease than ever before. That's the good news for us all.
...
Needless to say every new bio drug helps clear PA OR P. at first until the body makes antibodies against it...then P. comes back. So we manage the best we can. Stay informed, stay positive, use what works for us and enjoy life .This immune disease never has stopped me from doing things I enjoy. Maybe takes me longer and I have pride in what I can accomplish and put off what I cannot. It's adjusting to my limitations and accepting that things change.
Happy New Year.....EVERYBODY !!!!
