@Caroline We did think of that but the risk of spoil or contamination was to high.
@Mataribot No it's not the cost issue as they are happy to give me 90mg, it's just that they are not keen on going away from the recommendations from Stelara which states 12 weeks.
Stelara say 45mg up to 100 Kg and 90mg over 100 kg, I'm 103 Kg so we tried 90mg but it was just to much for me and made me feel like a zomibe for a few weeks. I should get my weight down, but struggle with that one
So the theory is, if we could try 65mg every 12 weeks it would be in keeping with the recommendations of the time scale and would help with future studies.
For my part I'm going to have another go at getting my weight down, and they are going to talk with Stelara to see what we can come up with for my next appointment in February.
Now what did I do with that Bicycle ................................. Oh I remember it's in one of the old outbuildings where the secret stash of alcohol and the freezer are kept .................... Mmmmmm Food & Alcohol maybe start Monday Fred.
