Bimzelx for psoriatic arthritis Fred's journey

[Fred]

Well Ilumetri failed, I only made 1 year and it's time to move on yet again in the search for a bio that will keep the psoriatic arthritis away or at least let me live with it a bit more comfortable.

You can read my last journey here Ilumetri for psoriatic arthritis Fred's journey if you wish and there are others if you start digging, but the main reason I use a bio is because I want to be able to do things and move, this will be my 8th bio and I'm really hoping this one will ate least give me some comfort for a few years.

This time I'm starting on the recommended dose two injections of 160 mg each today then weeks 4, 8, 12, 16 and every 8 weeks thereafter.



Psoriasis Score: 4

Right Shin



Right foot



Mrs Fred got on of my scalp for me.



Psoriatic Arthritis Score: 7

Hands a bit painful.

Wish me luck everyone I really could do with this one working as the psoriatic arthritis is getting me down a bit now.

Thank you FW I take photos so I can look back and see how well things are going as it's easy to forget once you get clearance.

Yes they are painful and I'm not able to do much with them some days, but things can only get better.

As you might have expected, also from me the best wishes for this bio to work well for you.

It's only been a week, but do you notice any improvement, yet?

Yes I noticed a difference after one day, but it's too early to say if it's the bimzelx or me just being positive and wanting it to work.

I always think you need a month at least before being sure when starting a new bio, and then give it 6 months before knowing if it's going to continue.
