I am in the process of failing taltz, after failing Cosentyx, Humira, Enbrel, methotrexate etc., etc. etc. My P has been out of control, seriously out of control. My hair is gone due to scalp P, had it in my ears so bad both got infected and my left ear canal swelled shut. That caused bronchitis. The coughing from the bronchitis caused Costochondritis.

Patriciamcgall...I just had another Stellara injection and my Dermatologist told me that it has just been approved for Chrones as well.. Wouldn't it be great if you cleared both with just one injection every 3 months?? Ask your Dr about it and good luck..Hope it is the answer for you..

I found cyclosporine great, but I got pneumonia, so had to discontinue it, been on humira, which has been great for Chrons but no good for p,methotrexate was added however that had to be discontinue due abnormal liver function. How going to try Enbrel. I am a nurse, feel embarrassed when patients comment on my skin, feeling frustrated , due to P & Pa & Chrons
