Hi I’m 44 and I have psoriatic arthritis since I was 23 and psoriasis since I was about 16
I started Enbrel when I was 30 and helped tremendously for 11 years then stopped working so was changed to IMRALDI about 1.5 years on that and i started to have injections site reaction was changed to Benapali and same thing happened which then caused really bad urticaria for a few months I am currently on long term antihistamines
My dr told me to stop with the biologics and give my body a break which I did 6 months
So lat week i started my new injections Taltz and within 2 minutes had the worst reaction on injections site the reaction spread a lot for the next 2/3 days
Back on steroids and hydrocortisone cream more antihistamines etc and urticaria is back
I’m at a loss as what’s next for me
Just wondering if anyone had similar experience, back to see my rheumatologist Tuesday, but I don’t know what he will do for me as my body is obviously rejecting the biologics
When I get these injection site reaction the pain and itch and swelling is so bad then on day 3/4 I get the urticaria and chills, I’m just afraid if I keep going I will have a really bad life threatening reaction
Any feedback of similar situation would be welcome x
