Hello new person with PsA

NatureIsAwesome

Hello everyone! This is my first post and I’m super grateful for this community. I’m 32 years old and have been living with widespread Psoriatic Arthritis for many years now. I started Methotrexate injections last summer, and am about to start a biologic (Humera) alongside it. The chronic pain is a real struggle as I have no one to talk to who understands the impacts of this.
I hope you’re all having a relatively pain-free day!

Ellen

Hello @NatureIsAwesome lovely to meet you and welcome you to the online community.

I hope it's ok but you had accidentally posted to your wall so I have reposted it over here so it is visible to our members.

Do please have a good look around the forum and join in wherever you feel comfortable you are assured of a warm welcome.

Just in case you might be interested I did a quick search for discussions about Humira for you:

https://community.versusarthritis.org/search?domain=all_content&query=humira&scope=site&source=community

and here is some information about Humira (Adalimumab).

Best of luck with your new medication

Ellen.

Hi @NatureIsAwesome

Love the flower is it one from your own garden?

Nice to meet you I promise there are loads here with PsA so you'll be able to share you experience and gain from yours.

There are also a fair few on humira if you have any issues do shout.

Take care

Hi there!

Welcome to the club, I was diagnosed with PsA 2 years ago at 31. Like you I had no one I knew with arthritis (at our age especially), not even psoriasis so I found the experience very isolating. Honestly this community has helped me very much with my mental health so I encourage you to keep talking. And you can always talk to me! Sounds like we have a lot of common.
