Hi and welcome to the forum aecrawford , it's great on here and all the inmates are barmy but friendly .
I am on Stelara and I will follow your progress if you go back on it again with interest , ask any question you want as everyone has the same problems and will answer truthfully not like some of the so called health professionals who don't really know what they are talking about half the time.

Hi aecrawford and welcome   Wave 
Not much help from here with your decision making from here I'm afraid. I've only recently got off the useless topical train and started orals in the form of Acitretin.
The general suggestion by the collective to try Stelara again does sound like a good choice though.

Okay all. Doctors visit went well. We are going to push insurance to approve Tremfya. Apparently the "new and improved" Stelara. Praying insurance will approve and I can start this in the next few weeks.

That sounds like a good option. It's new kid on the block.

Tremfya gets FDA approval for psoriasis treatment

Tremfya (guselkumab)

If you would like to start a new thread in Prescribed Treatments For Psoriasis about you journey I'm sure it will be very helpful to others considering using it, and as far as I know you will be our first member trying it. But there is no obligation, it's your choice

Good luck
