Stelara round two

[Fred]

Week 8 update:

I've been working very hard to not let the Winter Blues get hold of me this year and been pleased with the way it has gone, but with this last damp spell we are currently having (two weeks now) it's looking like Stelara just can't cope with the psoriatic arthritis after week 8 like it used too. I found this with the 45mg dose and I know Stelara isn't great for psoriatic arthritis but the 90mg dose was getting me through it.

I've also got a cold sore and feeling a bit run down so that isn't helping. Funny thing is I've not had a cold sore like this for years. I used to get loads as a Kid but they got less as I got older, and the most odd thing is that I haven't had hardly any since being on the Bio's (I would have thought it should be the other way round)

Psoriasis Score has gone up from 3 up to  5

Psoriatic Arthritis score has gone up from 3 up to 11

Bloods and Dermatology in three weeks, will see how things are then.
