Has anyone tried Enbrel, then moved on to Humira and still not seeing a big difference? Anybody on Stelara after not having any luck with the other two?

I was on enbrel for 2 years and it worked at first but after 12 months my psoriasis was back in force...been on humira for the last 18 months now and I'm happy to say my psoriasis is clear..I have also found that staying away from wine and larger has also helped as the minute I drank any my skin would flare up big time..so a change in my drinks and the injections have worked wonders for me...good luck.

I'm on Humira & love it. It has helped me with my arthritis I have psoriatic arthritis especially in my left knee. When I take my injection, my pain lessens. I have had two cortisone infections to my left knee. But see no knee replacement surgery in my future. So, I was offered a gel & given two pamphlets to read on the jells that can be injected in my knee to avoid surgery. Has anyone out there had a jel injection?
