Just let it out if you need to, I think you will find most of us have cried because of psoriasis I certainly have. But if you can get yourself in a positive mood you will find it a huge help. First off don't look on it as a curse, It's not a curse. It's just something that can ruin your life if you let it.

Sounds like you have tried most things so options are running out, but there is lots of new stuff on the horizon, check out my threads with this image
Going back to Stelara I have been on it for over 3 years now and it's the best thing I've ever found. I have bad PsA and Stelara has and still does help me with it. I don't want to pry on your life but if it helps, I'm 100Kg and one 45mg shot every 12 weeks stopped working for me. I went on to 90mg but It made me fell like a zombie, so I played with the dose for a while and have found 1 shot of 45mg every 8 weeks is perfect for me.
I'm also with you and Caroline about Methotrexate, my dermatologist has always hinted at using it but I refused and always will. That's how we got to the stage of playing around with the Stelara dose, so it could be worth a go.
And on another positive note as Caroline has hinted at Psoriasis Club you can watch chickens shooting bikers.
Take care mate, and sorry for late reply but it's the time difference.
Regards.
