Hi Lexidoll, I see that you are located in the North ,I assume you mean UK.
I can relate to what you are saying and I can tell you the dam P does get to you ,it makes you very despondent when nothing seems to work ,does he have a good dermatologist or are they content to just see him and send him home with just some more things.
If he has had all the lotions and potions inc MTX and Acitretin then there should be no reason why he should not be able to go onto something like Stelara which in my humble opinion is probably the best bio .
Encourage him to come on the site and have a chat because I have found that if you can speak to people who have P/PsA not the medical staff who think they know everything then you will get truthful answers to your questions from people who know what they are talking about.
It's a fact of life that he who shouts the loudest gets the prize and they only way is to badger the docs etc and insist that something is done otherwise you just get neglected.
Take care and all the best Dave
