Due to my immune system getting low  with this combo my verrucas on my feet are not slowing up still going under the knife every 2 weeks then silver nitrate applied

so had appointment today at St Thomas Hospital London Laser clinic to get them burnt out should take around 4 treatments but going to be a long process up to 6 months to heal on each foot oh joy

Stelara here today 20th will self inject next week 26th as it falls on Boxing day then Mtx 29th

the home team asked to hold back a week but said no due keeping it to every 8 weeks injections

have got derm & rheumy this Thursday at Guys need to sort out problems with PA

verrucas are still as bad as ever will be glad when i start laser treatment

but on the up side health has not been to bad due to most of the schools and friends going down with bug's flu etc

will be having a better talk with the professor re small mark on liver that showed up re scan should be ok as bloods are good

had to come off 2 meds for D due to heart problems like failure nice give you drugs to help you then find out down line could be killing you

so hopping the next year will be better for all of us and new treatments will help us

G'Day John Boy,

I've have suffered eye strain occasionally on the stelara mainly a head temple strain above the left eye, not often tho, just the headaches (minor) of which I can get rid of with aspirin.  How many weeks apart are you injecting the Stelara? Recently my Derm has been giving it to me 8 weekly as I had a flare up when he put me back on MTX (never again).  What of your liver (blood results).  I'm doing very well currently pasi of about 3.

Stay well John'o Hoo Roo
