I have tried a lot of different medications without help. I have joint pain and joint damage and horrible fatigue.

I considered the infusions, but I have a really high deductible and my insurance won't cover any of the infusions until I meet the deductible. 🤬

Until very recently Simponi Aria infusions have been very helpful.

Geez Bonnie, sounds very similar. I got angry with this disease and have really studied diet, gut health and wellness. I am into Alchemy or as my daughter says witchcraft, but a gluten free diet and fresh veg juice has made a huge difference to my pain and inflammation levels. I take phenolic powder 1tspn daily and this helps inflammation, gut health, and immune system. My Pain specialist is taking note and said to continue. I have all the time to do this research it keeps my brain functioning also, and as an almost 70 yr old with 5 joint replacements that's important.

I have Psa but have never had any psoraisis so far. I've tried lots of meds, Embrel, Humira, Otezla, Jelzanz, Orencia. Methotrexate, Cosentyse with little success! I'm currently taking Leflunomide which helps my swelling but my knees & feet have problems & I'm still feeling lots of chronic pain, swelling, joint pain but it's better than it was. I also take duloxetine for chronic pain, high blood pressure meds & a prescription for my restless legs at night. Lots of other supplements too. Hang in there! Psa is very challenging! Keep trying til you find something that helps! I've had Psa at least since 2015 but most likely earlier. I hope you find relief. I also have sleep apnea, spinal stenosis, osteoarthritis & lots of chronic pain with fatigue! I try to be upbeat & look for what I do have to show & feel gratitude! Everyone has challenges! I've been blessed! Hope you feel this way too inspite of us😉 Psa.
