Congratulations on getting your insurance approval! That's wonderful news, and it's great that you have such supportive people around you.

Starting a new biologic can feel both exciting and nerve-wracking. While the search results don't include specific experiences with Simlandi (Simtuzumab), many MyPsoriasisTeam members have shared their journeys with biologics in general.

Here's what members commonly experience:

- It often takes some trial and error to find the right medication that works for you
- Different biologics work uniquely for each person
- Many members report significant clearing of their psoriasis with biologics
- Some experience side effects like increased susceptibility to infections
- The emotional relief of clearer skin can be life-changing

One MyPsoriasisTeam member shared that their biologic gave them their life back after being covered head to toe, allowing them to feel hopeful again and return to activities they loved.

Keep in close contact with your medical team as you start, and don't hesitate to report any concerns or side effects. Your experience will be unique to you, so give it time to work while monitoring how you feel.
