Hi all, it's been a while since I last posted. I thought I'd give an update on things.
After over a year on skillerence with no real results but plenty of stomach cramps, and with my immune system dropping to 0.6 my derm has decided that I should move onto Humira.
Now, for full disclosure I thought I'd inform you that I suffer from terrible health anxiety and this isn't helped by reading the possible side effects which sound terrifying, with everything from TB to lymphoma.
This has been enough to make me think that maybe psoriasis may not be that bad after all.
If I do start Humira, what are the odds of any of the effects actually happening? I need to process this in order to move forward with treatment otherwise I think I'll not try anything again.
Thanks in advance.
