Scalp and skin psoriasis

Funny, I started with PsA before scalp or skin psoriasis, 15 years ago. Started with requiring tailbone injections 2-3 times a year.

My scalp and skin psoriasis has come and gone for the past 10 years. I have been on Humira (which caused me drug induced lupus), Cosentyx, Trymfya and Otezela.

Currently on just Otezela. Struggling with scalp psoriasis and skin, which looks likes shingles and chickenpox.

Nothing is working.

Curious if anyone has read that GPL-1 is being used for inflammation and psoriasis.

  1. That's a long road you've been on with some major bumps in the road. And having tried that many meds with little relief is really discouraging. I’m sorry you’re dealing with that. I personally haven't heard of GPL-1 being used for inflammation and psoriasis, but I’m curious if anyone here has actual experience or info. Hopefully others can jump in and share what they’ve learned. This is an interesting area to explore! -Latoya (Team Member)
