I'm planning on posting more stories from work like this. This happened right after I started my shift th

I caught my PBM doing some really shitty things this year... last year it was a suspicion, this year I caught them stealing from the cookie jar. When I shared what happened with my family and friends the majority had never even heard of them! So I’m going to share here where people get it. I hit my

I wanted to follow-up on a previous post I made regarding starting Stelara. https://old.reddit.com/r/Psoriasis/comments/yjhr6z/plaque_psoriasis_after_a_covid_vaccine/ I have now be on Stelara for 7 months and it has nearly cleared my Psoriasis. I stopped applying Clobetasol some months ago and each

I’ve been on biologics for about a year now, i started in December 2024. About 45ml shot of Ustekinumab every 3 months as prescribed by my dermatologist. Problem is, it is losing its efficacy.
