"I lived with severe psoriasis for almost 10 years. It covered almost 90% of my body. I've tried every medication available - methotrexate, Raptiva, and several others. Remicade has been a miracle for me. Short sleeves, clean scalp, no psoriasis. It has changed my life with an infusion for a couple of hours every other month. I live with confidence again."

Infliximab "I have been taking it for 2 1/2 years now for both PsA and psoriasis. Before Remicade, I was on Humira and still had about 25-30 percent plaque coverage, mostly on my legs and arms. About a week after the first infusion, my psoriasis was almost cleared up. I now only have a tiny bit starting in my ears again. The only side effect I attribute to it is my blood pressure skyrocketed shortly after the first infusion, however, it is under good control with a low dose of Coversyl plus. I hope to remain on Remicade for a long time. My arthritis seems to be under control with only minor flares just before infusion."

Infliximab "It only partially worked after four months of use and then completely stopped working after fourteen months after starting. However, then again, I've only had one TNF inhibitor work well after six months of use and for the next twelve months before it stopped working. I've tried five different TNF inhibitors and one other."
