My visit to the Dermatologist

I have Psoriatic arthritis (2 years) and plaque Psoriasis (for more than 10 years). I went to visit the Dermatologist today. I have been using Raptiva for 5 months and I had great results. I was able to see some Psoriasis spots disappear.

I was so excited until I received a letter from the company that makes Raptiva, that medicine has been recalled due to deaths related to the effects on some patients.

The doctor prescribed Enbrel. http://enbrel.com/
I need to inject two time a week for three months and once a week after the 4 month.
Hopefully this will continue working on my skin.
