Cosentyx gets psoriatic arthritis approval in Europe.

[Caroline]

Sounds strange that the opinions of the dermatologist and the rheumatologist differ in such a way. This while one even should guess that the rheumatologist should know more of internal diseases like arthritis.

They don't differ that much, they both said methotrexate, stay on Stelara, or hard luck.  

It's just that the rheumatologist has said before that Stelara doesn't work for psoriatic arthritis even though it did and still does, and now is saying Cosentyx will only be approved for psoriasis. I think it's about different departments wanting to prescribe certain things. Because dermatology got Stelara and will get Cosyntex first they will be prescribing it. So this means that rheumatology are not treating psoriatic arthritis.

I'm lost on so much stupidity.  

But we are just people living with the problem, how can we possibly know as much as people in white coats

You have a point there..
But.... Butchers also have white coats. Surely they know a lot of course.
