Hi all,
I'm rather new here, there seem to be a lot of different people with different backgrounds, so maybe someone can help.
I have had psoriasis for twenty years or so, mostly controlled with topicals, occasionally with cortisone injections and two years or so ago I was put on embrel injections.
With the embrel I was getting blood work done quarterly and all was good, I cleared up very well almost totally. I got off the embrel and went back to topicals. Everything was good for about 9 months. Then I had a major breakout and had to work realy hard with the topicals to keep it in control, it's OK but I have two swollen sore joints in my feet, on on each foot. Small toe on one foot, third toe on the other Metatarsus to phalange joint on both. Is going back on embrel my only choice? Anything else working for anyone out there.
Thanks
