Stelara trial – any advice?
I've taken infliximab for a few years but in the past 12 months I've been getting flare ups.
It's got to the stage where I find it hard to leave the house.
Stool tests show some continuous inflammation but nothing severe like bleeding.
Steroids and dietary changes haven't helped.
My doctors finally suggested Stelara. The drug doesn't seem to be wildly prescribed in the UK.
My other option is to double my infliximab, however I already have good levels of the drug.
I would appreciate it if anyone can share their experience of Stelara (good or bad). Do you think it could work for me?
