JonJon here. Currently 54 years old. Ive had Psoriasis since somewhere around 2010. Maybe even some symptoms as far back as 2008ish? It started on my elbows and I didnt pay much attention to it but you know how that goes.
Some years back I was taking Methotrexate and one thing lead to another and now i am on Humira.
Other than Humira I am not on ANY meds. Even with the Humira I still have plenty of scalp issues and some visible spots including one on my face which has been there a good while.
At this point my plan is to totally change my diet and to come off of Humira entirely. it is what it is.
When I look at "Psoriasis diets" or anti inflam diets, they basically rule out EVERYTHING I eat. Of course that is also a good clue as to why I ended up with Ps in the first place
I am also quite overweight. about 236lbs at 5.8".....which I read is also a contributor to chronic inflammation. Since I have a goal to be around 185lbs anyway, there is no way around a massive diet overhaul.
Stats. 7-29-2021
54 y.o.
5'8" 236lbs (goal 185ish)
taking Humira. Plan to come off of it eventually. Am on no other meds.
Ill be asking some diet and cooking questions im sure! lol
Cheers, JonJon
