Psoriatic arthritis in hands

Skin, nail and hair health

I have psoriatic arthritis in all the joints of all my fingers on both

Hands. Have just started Benepali injections. Any experience of this

Treatment?

Hi Christopher, although I don't have experience of this drug, I just wanted to say that I hope it works for you. I have PSA in a couple of fingers and that is bad enough, but I can't imagine having it in every finger! I really feel for you.

Let us know how you get on with it, and hopefully someone one here will have some knowledge of it they can share with you.

Thanks for getting in touch. It's not much fun but at least I can't do any ironing!

Hi Christopher,

Sorry to hear that!  Have you had a look at the forum discussions for Benepali?

You may find some answers to some questions in there.

Good luck

Yes, although I have not had that treatment now for a long time.

Over the last six months I have suffered Trigger Finger and have operations on my Tendons, I found the operation quick and easy, although my had does not feel as strong and I sometimes feel my hand does not respond as well as before

Thanks very much, I have looked at this and found it very interesting

Thanks for your comments. I know it can take some time for the treatment to work, in the meantime enjoying the side effects of runny nose and itching.
