Hi Jenna and welcome to the club.
Sorry to hear of your flair up
Like the others have said go fully armed to your next Dermy appointment. I would ask for Stellara but be aware that our glorious NHS has a protocol to follow and depending upon your severity and other medical conditions they may push you onto Acitretin or Cyclosporin et al and fail on those before going onto the bio's. Do your best and and be prepared to hold your ground with valid arguments. I have always found it useful to go with someone and take them into the appointment you generally get received so much better than seeing someone solo.
Take care and keep us updated
