I do have a couple of patches one of them on my left leg that are not getting any better and another on my right elbow , the worse area's of P that I have are in my ears and around them but none of it is a problem just annoying and for the Psa I am still taking the Tramadol but it's not as effective as it used to be so I could do with looking at that again.
I hope you are soon feeling a bit better Fred.
Thank you Dave, I gave up with Tramadol after my last hangover from it. Merlot does a similar job and doesn't leave me with the side effects.
The thing is Dave we shouldn't have to be seeking pain relief whilst taking a treatment, the treatment should be doing it's job. If it fails as I think Stelara is for me now after 5 years, then it's time to say it's maybe not doing what it should be doing.
But I do keep reminding myself, there are people worse off and at least today more is being done for people with psoriatic arthritis.
