Having been clear of psoriasis since the start of my journey, my bloods have now hit low levels. My level is sitting at 0.5 and apparently the goal posts have moved for the blood levels to recommended 0.7. Due to this I had another blood test yesterday and I am awaiting if I have to discontinue. I am only on 1 -2 tablets a day and was asked to half the dose to see if that helped. My psoriasis has already started to return on my hands and elbows. So frustrating to get yourself clear for a period of time and then to be told you have to try something else.
Will keep you posted.
Cheryl,I know it gets frustrated when you find a med that works and you have to get off of it for one reason or another.I was on Remicade infusions and had a bad reaction to it so I waited for months to get Enbrel injections.During that time I broke out all over a few weeks after I got off of it.I am clear now but never know if I will have another reaction from Enbrel.Keep your spirits up and hopefully you can find another Biologic that will work,I feel your pain cause it happened to me.Good luck and may you get back on the road to recovery!
