Anyone on this drug ? I am due to start taking it in a few weeks time for my PA & AS. Would love to hear from anyone who is currently taking or has taken in the past, particularly interested in any side-effects. Thanks.

Great stuff. No side effects for me. The walking sticks are put away.

Thanks. I will probably be starting this in a couple of months time. Meanwhile they have put me on Ciclosporin to help with the Psoriasis.
