Extreme Tiredness

A MyPsoriasisTeam Member asked a question 💭
Belfast, UK

Hello,

For the last year I have been on a range of treatments for my psoriasis. Starting with phototherapy, then methotrexate and currently ciclosporin. Nothing has really worked. Starting biologics soon. I am suffering from extreme tiredness and a lot of headaches. Does anyone else suffer from this and can offer any help?

I was on Humira for several years and it worked well until I became immune to it. Now on Embrel and it has almost cleared any remaining lesions. When travellling to the States, a 12 hour trip, I carry my injections in little freezer bag, with a copy of my prescription inside the bag.

I'm on enbrel 50mg injection once a week. Psoriasis had gone almost completely and the swelling in my feet and hands has gone down. Still feel permanently tired which is why I don't post very often x

My Husband who has the psoriatic Arthritis has been very sick in the last 6 years. is now on Humira, has been on Embrel and they all make him very tired all the time. Pain is better being on the Humira but sleeps a lot. He has been told its the Arthritis causing the tiredness. He is 60 and cannot work because of it.
