Hi everyone,
I've posted before on using fumeric acid esters(fumaderm and skilarence) before. I've had great success with these over the last number of years, however they have stopped working
Seen my derm last week and I've been put on stelera. Nurse is due to call today to help me with my first dose. I'll try to keep this post updated so you can follow the effects
Let's hope it's as successful as fumaderm was to begin

Good luck with Stelara! It worked well on my psoriasis and I had no side effects while on it

Good luck I hope it works well and works fast for you
I will follow this thread with great interest as I guess if ever skilarence stops working that will be my next choice

First bump in the road
Nurse was due to call today and I had time off work booked... Call at 10am to say the nurse called in sick and they would get back to me in due course to reschedule.
Looks like I'm gonna be waiting another while.

Shame about that Mac especially if you have taken time off to get it done
Hope you get it rearranged soon

That's annoying! But hopefully you won't have to wait too much longer to get started.

Right so got a last minute chance to meet the nurse this morning and I've taken my first dose.
Wasn't nearly as bad as I expected!!! Looking forward to seeing how this goes, Let's go Stelera
