Stelara round two

[D Foster]

Small update almost two weeks since taking my 90mg shot and have had no problems with the Zombie effect, I've also not noticed any headaches or anything unusual.  

The psoriasis is clearing again though it was only a small flare anyway, however it's not helped one little bit with the psoriatic arthritis.  

So unfortunately it does look like it has run it's course and can no longer help with psoriatic arthritis, but I can still highly recommend it for psoriasis.

Now for something I never thought I would say. "I have backed down and asked for Poison Methotrexate" I ended up with no choice in the end as there is nothing available to me at the moment, and if there was I wouldn't be able to use it anyway after a 90mg of Stelara. And if I don't do something soon I will go crazy, as at the moment I'm still in a huge amount of pain and life is becoming increasingly difficult by the day. I'm not even capable of driving the car and for an ex driver this is very frustrating, life has just become one big struggle.

I'm starting on Methotrexate Injections Monday and will start a new thread about it, as I don't want to be on it long if I can help it and would rather keep this thread about my use of Stelara as it may help others.  

And I'm happy to accept all the finger pointing to some of my posts where I condemn Methotrexate and say it should not be used, but in my defence it's take it go and find a rope.
(Only joking about that last bit as I wouldn't be able to throw the rope over a beam, or climb up on the chair)

Sorry to hear that you are still having PsA problems still, I am not as bad as you Fred but I do know what it's like ,if MTX is the only way to go then really you do not have much choice . It has been used a long time so it extremely safe if you discount the possible side effects which you should be OK with then it will help with the PsA.
