They share many similar attributes. One small study shows enbrel may benefit pah sufferers. Pah is killing me. The treatment I need I can’t afford. I am convinced being on enbrel for my psoriasis is the only thing stopping the pah from killing ne. But one day It won’t. So those with both, please study any links and bring them to the attention of relevant clinicians world wide. I am doing this now in the hope I’m right.
It is all linked by inflammation. Common denominator. Work on lowering internal inflammation with the anti inflammatory foods list. White willow bark capsules, tea or tincture. Available on Amazon.
What a deeply personal and courageous thing to be doing — advocating for research into a connection that could help others. That kind of determination matters.

I would say yes...
Sorry! Lastly I plan to present to clinicians evidence of patients with both and see if this can help with future research into one or both conditions. If you have psoriasis please look up PAH and its symptoms of which the main is breathlessness doing things you should be able too or always have that have suddenly seemed or are impossible. Get checked and be aware.
I was on enbrel for several years and for my psorias it was working super well. 100 percent clearance. For some reason my Demi changed me to cosintyx. I didn’t like it. Twice as many doses, a much more expensive treatment so cost the nz taxpayer 8 times more than enbrel. After a while my scalp psoriasis returned. The injections were significantly more painful too. It was once I was on C I was diagnosed with pah. I continued on with C. I read all I could about pah. I found a tiny study suggesting enbrel was the go for pah. In shock I went back to my Dermi. (It was the third time I asked to change back the other two before pah). I was insistent I needed enbrel. I didn’t mention the finding of the study. He agreed to put me back in it. In 2021. I was given a six months to live prior to the enbrel. It’s 2026 and here I am! The sad thing is my scalp psoriasis did not clear and had gotten way worse over time even with enbrel. I scratch from dawn till dusk. I never say no to trying things to relieve it. I have tried 40 different shampoos and have a uber machine at home and have now tried all prescribed creams and lotions available. It remains. But so do I. I believe there has to be a link between pah and psoriasis and am looking to connect with anyone with both.
