Hi
Hello aged 32
Was diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis back in October time and been on methotrexate since then. Been on 8 tablets a week and haven’t noticed any improvements.
Now getting put on in addition to Sulfasalazine soon and was wondering if anyone on the same. also methotrexate going up to 10 tablets a week
Got given a Kenalog Steroid Injection and feel great, hopefully give some relief for a couple of months
Any advice would be great. Most affecting my feet and knees making it hard to bend down and go up stairs

Hello @jb68 and welcome to the Community. We are a friendly and supportive group and I hope that you experience that as well.
I understand that you have been diagnosed with Psoriatic Arthritis and prescribed methotrexate, but about to Sulfasalazine. Hopefully these will be of benefit to you. I've put a couple of links in below to items on our website which might be of use.
and also
Please keep posting and let us know how you are getting on and if the new meds work for you.
With best wishes
