"HUMIRA helps to treat moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis by achieving 75% skin clearance.
HUMIRA can help relieve the symptoms of plaque psoriasis by giving you clearer skin.
In clinical trials, 7 out of 10 adults with moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis who used HUMIRA saw 75% skin clearance, and the majority of people were clear or almost clear in just 4 months."
Do you have to continue Humira shots for the rest of your life to maintain your clearance?
Yes you would probably stay on it as you will with most treatments both prescribed and natural as there is no cure and it will come back once you stop or your current treatment stops working for you. In Europe you will get Humira and other treatments free, but this thread may be of interest. cost of treatment

Yes you do have to go with what you feel comfortable with and good on you for sharing, I look forward to your updates.

This would still worry me as I don't see how having an acupuncture & chiropractic license helps in the treatment of psoriasis, and as for lying about having a MD license that's not very professional in my opinion.
I'll stick to Stelara that has made me almost clear and given me my life back after being immobile with psoriatic arthritis, it costs me nothing as in France Psoriasis is classed as a long term illness, it has passed very rigorous tests, and is prescribed and monitored by a fully trained MD.
But each to there own, good luck with it.
