For Psoriatic Arthritis "Bimzelx is my 6th biologic in less than 3 years. My psoriatic arthritis is severe, and my psoriasis is mild. I felt the best in 3 years after my first dose, 320 mg. About 11 days later, I started with a red rash on my face, then chest and arms. The rash was like sandpaper. It spread to my legs last. It was itchy and painful, I had to take prednisone. Now I'm due for shot 2, for which I now have an EpiPen. Praying for no rash, finally found a biologic that works, and I got a suppression rash."

For Hidradenitis Suppurativa "I’ve only been taking Bimzelx for a month now for my HS, and I already see a big difference in the size and number of boils. I have severe HS, and under one armpit, I have six boils and three under my other armpit. After taking the injections twice for one month, all the boils have gotten smaller, and a few have begun to close up. It’s still a little painful, but I can already feel a difference, and I’m so happy that I’ve finally been able to take a medication that really does help. The injection is not painful, I think injecting it in different parts of my stomach helps with that. After each injection, the following day, I feel the difference and can tell it’s getting better. After living with HS for almost 25 years, I can’t express how truly thankful I am to see the results and slowly but surely get the treatment I’ve been praying for. I just want to be pain-free and able to have a range of motion in my arms without cringing from having boils there all the time. Bimzelx works!"

For Hidradenitis Suppurativa "It seems to be at least as effective as Humira, but unlike Humira, the injections are painful. All aspects of the injection are painful. The stick hurts, as well as the long injection of the liquid. With Humira, I didn't feel a thing, but with Bimzelx, it's torture every 2 weeks."

For Psoriatic Arthritis "Assisted relieving pain and severe burning sensations on the front side of my fingers below the nail area. Roof of mouth and tongue feeling slimy covered in a white milky coating which won't scrub or wash away. Affects the taste of food and liquid. Had unexplained tiredness and body pain. Unsure if a direct result of the medication, but experiencing sight issues, blurred vision appears to be worsening a little more each month. Pain, burning, redness, and swelling around the injection site lasting for 7 days. Injection 160 ml taken monthly."
