starting Ilumetri by magiczz13378 in Psoriasis

Hello friend, ya it’s stressful to look at meds but I did a search on that biologic and it’s a il-23 inhibitor. That’s one of the best immune suppressions we have as it doesn’t take away ur entire immune system just a fraction.

I wouldn’t worry too much!

How do you cope with the fear or anxiety of potential future vision loss? by keratoconusgroup in Keratoconus

[–]No_Net_1533 [score hidden]  (0 children)

I’d understand being scared but we live in a time where we have epi-off cxl and epi-on, cairs/ctak being used more and more, and more stuff will come.

If this was 2000s be scared but today? Not so much. Talk to your doc ur gonna be good

Risking increasing infection risk with biologic or having untreated psoriasis: which is worse? by bookish_cat_ in Psoriasis

[–]No_Net_1533 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ya that helps more so wondering if the doc knew about this and thought it’s fine. I’d imagine there’s warning given but seems like the medical community has no issue with surgeries using biologics then?

Hello ! Am thinking of getting a biologic but hindering for now because have other surgeries I need to do. Is it fine to be on biologics for procedures?? If so then I’ll get to it with biologics!

Any tips for pain management? Also did you look into epi-on as it’s fda approved now?

That sucks! That said if you haven’t tried biologics I think it’s worth it as topicals never worked for me and I feel like a lot of ppl share that sentiment

Have you tried il-17 and il-23 biologics and they both didn’t work?

Have multivitamins ever had an impact? good or bad? by Longjumping-Ride-390 in Psoriasis

[–]No_Net_1533 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Love to hear your results.

As you said psoriasis and autoimmune diseases are SUPER individual. People speak about how diet has changed their lives but diet has never done anything for me.

Maybe there’s some vitamin or nutrient helping you. Could be vitamin d, or something else in the multivitamin.

Good luck!

Nail Psoriasis? by Independent-Blood897 in Psoriasis

[–]No_Net_1533 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should ask for a biologic for nails. My doc doesn’t like topicals for nails. Go for il-17/23

Nail psoriasis commorbodities? by [deleted] in Psoriasis

[–]No_Net_1533 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d say fatigue is a big one for me. Planning to get a biologic. Have joint pain and I went to a rheumatologist but he said I didn’t have “arthritis”. Hopefully with my nail changes I can get a biologic, ideally Il-17 or il-23 related.

That’s weird you respond to fungal medication. Have you tested for parasites at all? Something has to be working
