UK could get Stelara discount for psoriatic arthritis.

[D Foster]

I was on MTX at 25mg for six year orally and 20mg for a further three years by self injection and yes it made me quite ill over a period of time which is the reason I went on to injection but the side effects built up again .When I stopped the MTX for a six week break before I went on to Stelara I was 80% covered with P and fairly bad with PA. The Stelara cleared the P after the second injection at 4 weeks but I am still taking pain killers for the PA but it did start significantly to improve but not until I had been taking it for aprox 12 months.
