Thank you giving me hope. I’m a fellow psoriatic athritis sufferer. Diagnosed last August my condition has rapidly got worse and has not responded to high dosage of methotrexate. Due to go on biologics end of August. Hope get my life back too. Was an avid gym and yoga goer but had to reduce this massively due to pain and limited flexibility. ❤
Thanks for the update. my son has been in methotrexate for 4 months and whilst it’s helped about he is not right. We hope to get a Biologic soon. Do you still take methotrexate?
Hi Michael, Yes I still take MTX 20mg once a week but at my next rheumatology appointment in august I’m going to discuss lowering the dose to 17.5mg as I would prefer to just be on just the biologics in the long term but it will be an experimentation from here. Hopefully over the next couple years I’ll be able to just be on the biologics because I feel that’s what’s made the real difference Tell your son to keep going. It’s a hard road but I guess that’s life sometimes. I wish you both well

Stay positive. The biologics have given me my life back. I wish you well!
