Hello Everyone, I have just been given a confirmed diagnosis of PsA. I have been put on sulfasalasine 2000mg daily, what can I expect. Looking forward to another steroid jab in 4 weeks, ohh what bliss, I hope to make a fist again.

Hi Tee-Cee,

A very warm welcome to Beyond Psoriasis , so glad you've found us. Another steroid jab? bliss indeed :-)

Take care

Chloe

Welcome Tee-Cee.

I'm sorry to hear of your diagnosis but glad that you're over that hurdle and have started on treatment. Sulfasalazine didn't do much for me to be honest but I hope it helps you. And if one drug doesn't work there are plenty of other options.

How are you doing at the moment? Apart from looking forward to another steroid jab lol! I've found them extremely helpful too, a real reprieve!
