plaque psoriasis
"I have plaque psoriasis and PA for many years now. I was using Enbrel of which in comparison worked miracles. I started Otezla to try something new and not biologic. I was on Otezla for 3 months however, saw very little improvement on my skin and felt my PA became even worst. A finger completely swelled up of which had never happened to me in the past. I also felt more inflammation. The beginning symptoms of irregular bowl movements and major headaches were horrible, but gone after 2 weeks. What did remain up to the last minute were horrible horrible allergies/sinus as if I had a cold the entire time. The longer time on the medication the worst I got. I stopped taking Otezla and all side effects are minimizing. I also felt very depressed."
