That way I could have built up more in my system and maybe my skin would clear up sooner. I take 50mg injection every Sat. It's helping with my psoriatic arthritis now if the skin would get better. The Dr said it will help me but it will take time. So I'll wait and see. Yes the photo's are good to keep up on my disease and I can compare to before Enbrel then after. I just feel bad when summer comes and I wear a bathing suit my legs show not so much my back, which was really bad on the photo's. I won't let it hold me back from going swimming. When we go to Ocean City Md I am hoping the salt water will help clear me up.(Sun-15-03-2015, 02:55 AM)jiml Wrote: Nice set of pictures Glenda it doesn't look as if Enbrell is doing it for you at the moment .if these are recent pictures . But the pictures are a good record

Yes Kat the pictures will show how well the treatments are working. I am now having some issues with my kidney's too much protein I have to see the kidney specialist also my thyroid is under-active so now I am on Thyroid meds. one thing after another oh well it will work out. I am just thinking maybe my thyroid could be causing my high kidney count. Thanks for being a friend

Hi yes Glenda I think you said in an earlier post that you could take a higher dose but your cost would be a lot more, and the lower dose was moving the psoriasis but rather slowly,
I'm also looking forward to the summer and swimming in the sea as I'm sure it helps our skin... Looking forward to hearing you tell us the plaques have cleared

Hmm, don't know if there is a connection there or not. I hate going to the doctor anymore, it seems like before they can get one thing straightened out, they're already finding more things to fix. It makes sense that a lot of things could be connected when it comes to health problems though.

Hi Glenda thanks for posting these I am assuming are current pictures
You still have some plaques but compared with the earlier pictures they are improved a lot the big one on your back is flatter and almost gone, while the legs are being a bit more stubborn, but still much improved thanks for sharing with us I think you are well on the way to be clear, and hey the summer is just around the corner, when we can get our skin out in the rays to help clear Oh and I'm impressed with your photo posting skill
