I started with psoriasis around 11 but wasnā€™t diagnosed with PsA until I was 31 (four years and 7 drugs later) and I hate itā€™s guts. Lol I have to laugh because Iā€™m sitting here waiting to see my rheumatologist to discuss how my 4th biologic is goingā€¦ spoiler alert: itā€™s not going well, crafty immune system figuring out how to work around themā€¦ however according to my blood work Iā€™m doing much better than six months ago. But.. Iā€™m at a constant 6 on the pain scale but up to a 8 easily by bed. It sucks because I canā€™t take NSAIDS and I hate pain killers beyond acetaminophen which I reserve until I canā€™t handle the pain. Does anyone have a Experience with Stelara?
