Mine was pretty bad..way back...was on a lot of different drugs that suppressed immune system...the last two were Enbrel..3 years and then when that stopped working we switched to Humiera. It worked great until I got tagged with tongue cancer, then we stopped everything but topicals.
I am now cancer free (2 yrs) and covered with P again from head to toe...fill in the blanks.
A new drug called STELARA is out and about and unlike the others that all were t-cell inhibitors, this one blocks some of the interluken (sp) 12 and 23 proteins. The results I've seen are amazing, folks are clear in just a month or so.
Just wondering if anyone else has tried it???
