Hi, nice to meet you 
I think you will be offered methotrexate next, as per the NICE pathway. (Look up nice pathway psoriasis and click on systemic therapy which is next after light therapy).
But perhaps if you go in and ask about something specific you may go down another route. They aren't very likely to offer you Stelara until you have tried and ruled out methotrexate first. They work their way up the price of the drugs I guess!
Good luck with the derm, I'm seeing mine tomorrow too!
