To add, a reputable source told me that the NHS will not prescribe you a biologic until you have proved that hydroxychloroquine, methotrexate and sulfasalazine won't work.

All cost driven, of course.

Good luck!

I’m really not sure if Sulfasalazine worked I barely remember what happened those 4 months, I think I just sat there like a blob or something. The methotrexate only works if I don’t mess up and eat something wrong. All it takes is just a little paprika or maybe chili and I don’t have to move to hurt. Guess we’ll see what’s next.

I have already tried hydroxychloraquine privately but teh NHS are not even admitting i have an inflammatory disease even though its spread everywhere now...They are sending me for heamatology tests and trying to say theres no enthesistis on MRI yet sclerosis, but as i say no contrast offered to show the atcive inflammation. I know what their game is, ive been gaslit, refused a referral back to rhuematologyi had toget x2 diagnosis private and they are still not accepting it..... 3rd time lucky i seeing DR Barr at Leedsin two weeks he has an excellent rep for helping patients justlike me that have been let down by the NHS. Wish me luck x
