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!

    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

    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.
