Stelara - On Way!

Think I found it.

Interesting, whilst I do have respect for The British Association of Dermatologists (BAD) that seems a bit over the top to me. Stelara themselves don't mention it as far as I know, my dermatologist has never mentioned it,  and I was given brie almost every evening with my meal whilst in dermatology for a week.

I eat loads of Camembert, Brie and blue cheeses, pâté and eggs, obviously chicken should always be cooked well but I also eat undercooked red meat and I've had no problems in 5 years on Stelara.

It may just be me, but I think the British are becoming to soft on what they can and can't eat. Yes it may be wise to avoid some foods if you are really vulnerable, but to stop just because you're using Stelara seems a bit over the top to me.

At the end of the day Angie it's your choice, but I still think it's rubbish.

I've just read through it again and it says:

Avoid  dairy  foods that  are  not pasteurised. Camembert, Brie and blue cheeses, pâté or eggs, meat or poultry that are not adequately cooked pose a risk of salmonella infection.

I think that part would be better worded as "Avoid Salmonella" as it makes it sound like you should avoid the products mentioned, but salmonella can be found in other sources too such as:

Raw fruits and vegetables, alfalfa sprouts, melons, spices, and nuts. It can also be found in snakes, turtles, lizards, frogs, birds, and even in pet food and those that don't wash their hands.

Yep Avoid Salmonella whilst using Stelara, but enjoy a good cheese if you think it's safe.
