this link shows photos of a man using Humira injections.

He takes one injection every 14 days, and he's been doing this for over a year. All the photos are organized by date and injection cycle. The "Home" section shows his skin before the shots, and you can track the progress through every three-injection cycle. If you have questions, just ask.

Best, pat

Humira is an excellent drug. It's highly selective and belongs to the monoclonal antibody group used for various autoimmune conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and psoriasis. They are generally well-tolerated, but there is a downside. Long-term use can trigger latent infections like tuberculosis because of the immunosuppressive effect. There is also a concern regarding a slightly higher risk of cancer. It will likely take about 20 years to fully understand all the pros and cons of these types of medications.

Olivia Ramos66 said:Humira is actually an excellent medication—it's very selective since it belongs to that group of monoclonal antibodies used for various autoimmune conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and psoriasis... It’s generally well-tolerated, but there is a bit of a downside; long-term use might trigger certain latent infections in the body, like tuberculosis, due to its immunosuppressive effects. There's also some concern regarding a potentially increased risk of cancer. I suppose it might take about twenty years to truly see all the pros and cons of these types of drugs.

LP Olivia Ramos66, I totally understand where you're coming from. This was really the last resort for me. If you look at these photos, you can see how bad things were before compared to how they are now. I've honestly spent more than ten years total bouncing between hospitals. They've tried almost everything on the market for me. I've been dealing with psoriasis for over 50 years, and 2006 was definitely my worst year—I was actually stuck in the hospital on IV drips for three months straight and couldn't even get out of bed. Before this, I had tried Psoralen, Prednisone, Tegason, NeoTegason, and Methotrexate, and most recently, they gave me Enbrel, but even Enbrel didn't help. That photo from June 26, 2006, shows how rough it was. But then they started me on Humira, and it actually worked! Now I can walk around and even get a little work done around the house. I do worry about the side effects, though. I think, out of all the medications I've taken so far, this one is probably the least harmful. So far, I haven't felt any major issues, just a little weakness here and there. So, in my opinion, these drugs seem much gentler than anything else I've used. People say this is like starting a new life for me; I finally feel like a human being again. I can actually go out to a coffee shop now! And who knows, maybe next year I'll head back to the States to grab some amazing cevapi with ajvar near the train station in Chicago :-) I'm so hungry just thinking about it. I’m also planning to hit up some coastal spots to eat fresh fish and calamari, and maybe enjoy some local wine on an island like Maui or something—for me, right now, this is just pure bliss.
I am just so incredibly happy. Honestly, if any medication can bring this kind of happiness, then I guess it’s the best thing ever.
LP everyone😘 🙂 🎉 🙂

I can't tell if you're trying to be funny again or if you have something serious to say, though you're clearly struggling with both. 😍 👍

What kind of connection—ideological, marketing, or otherwise—do I supposedly have with this group of people?
I honestly feel like I'm being called out here.

ugh, whatever...

look, maybe things would be easier if half of us didn't know about this—which might actually help the psoriasis—and then we'd circle back to the idea that half of us would be happier just because you're easy on the eyes anyway 🧐
anyway, we aren't planning on having kids regardless—since we fall into that high-risk category, right?

so yeah, just relaxing, no strings attached 🙂

goldenstag213 said:Maybe ask your friend's husband to drop by the forum and share his personal experience—or if you prefer, just give us the full rundown yourself.

By the way, there's a pharmacy near my place run by that herbalist, Smith—his therapy involves a detox tea, some ointments, and honey to eat.
It’s all entirely natural and doesn't break the bank; I actually went to check everything out myself, though I’ll admit I'm a bit skeptical since I've tried plenty of herbal remedies before without much luck.
If anyone else here on the forum has dealt with this specific therapy, please reach out!
steelseal13, would you mind reaching out to your friend's husband one more time and asking him to share what happened with him?
Thanks!!

Sorry I haven't been around much lately—life got in the way! In the meantime, I actually decided to take the plunge and try that therapy myself. My package containing the "psoriasis therapy" arrived yesterday—it's a 40-day cycle consisting of two bags of tea, a tonic, and an ointment. Usually, the standard kit comes with one tube of ointment, but given how bad my skin is acting, I went ahead and ordered two right away. Honestly, looking back, I probably shouldn't have faulted me for ordering four, considering they come in 100g containers.
I've decided to just focus on treating my hands for now... so, let's see how it goes.👍 Along with the treatment, they provide dietary recommendations too. Apparently, I have to cut out quite a bit: anything acidic, vinegar, wine, lemons, oranges, berries, black coffee, chocolate, cocoa, honey, canned fish, spicy or smoked sausages, beans, peas, and alcohol... The coffee is going to be the hardest part, but they suggested I look for a substitute, like a decaf or grain-based coffee alternative.🙂
Every single item comes with a label listing the ingredients, expiration date, and registration number—you know, official stuff like a Class or registration ID...
Oh, and by the way—the ointment actually smells like dried herbs!😬

It’s probably lanolin and chamomile.😬

A few days ago, I started using the teas and ointments too, just on my hands. I'm not sticking to the diet, nor do I intend to. Still drinking my coffee regularly. 🙄
A coworker at work asked if something was burning somewhere🤣 ,so I told her nah, it's just the ointment I applied that smells like smoke.🤣

A colleague at work actually asked if something had caught fire somewhere 🤣—honestly! I just told them, "No, nothing happened, I just applied some ointments that smell a bit like smoke." 🤣

When I placed my order, they told me straight up that I absolutely had to stick to the diet, otherwise there wouldn't be any effect at all!? Didn't they tell you the same thing? 😕

That wasn't even what they told me, and honestly, if it was, I wouldn't be following that diet anyway. Even without their advice, I stick to clean eating—avoiding greasy, spicy, or sugary stuff and staying away from anything heavy. It might help a little, but let's be real: there aren't many options left when you're dieting for psoriasis. Still, eating right is worth it, not just for the skin, but just to keep my body from falling apart.

Hi.

Can anyone tell me where Dr. Smith is located?
My dad thinks he might have tried his therapy back in the day. But first, let me know where he's based, because my old man only remembers things by geographic locations. If he knows the area, he might share his experience with you (if he actually has any).

I support any attempt to find a cure. Try the therapy for the next 40 days and we'll see how it goes.

Don't get me wrong—I'm just speaking from my father's experience—but any therapy focused on "detoxifying" the body through strict dieting never resulted in 100% clearing of all the spots. There was always a small patch left or something that had just slightly faded. Secondly, those effects never lasted longer than a month or a month and a half (at least not for my dad).
And usually, everything would just come back even worse; the whole thing really only served to delay him getting to the beach to soak up the sun all day.
The third thing my dad noticed is that sticking to such a strict diet is incredibly stressful for the body, which isn't good for psoriasis at all (especially for the nerves). I've personally been dealing with this kind of stress for the last five years due to my own liver issues.

Regarding detoxing, my personal experience has been using Aloe Vera (drinking the gel every day) and, over the last 3–4 months, maybe the best supplement out there, Reliv-Forte (Milk Thistle seed extract). That’s what cleared me out the most and brought my wild transaminase levels back into a relatively normal range.
I think you might be able to add the things I use to this therapy, provided they don't clash with any other medications or treatments.

With faith in God,

First off, hey everyone
Look, I can only speak from my own experience here. I’ve been battling psoriasis for a solid 30 years.
It hit me everywhere—my entire body was covered. I tried just about everything under the sun and visited all sorts of clinics
all over the world. The general results? Pretty much always the same: you use a treatment and feel great for a bit, but as soon as you stop, the whole mess comes crawling back.

By total fluke, I stumbled upon this website in the US (they actually have two identical ones): http://www.lomalux.com
http://www.psoriasisanswer.com/ I gave them a ring, talked it through with a doctor over there, and they told me I needed to stick with their stuff for about 6 or 7 months.
At that point, I decided to roll the dice a little. I put it on my credit card and paid for
the LOMALUXPSORIASIS liquid and cream. It’s sold as a PSORIASIS KIT and runs about $59.95 USD, though shipping adds another $100 because these guys ship via UPS. Within a month, I’d gone through roughly 1.5 kits. To put it another way, that’s 3 packs in 2 months. I ended up ordering 10 packs. You drink the liquid based on your weight (there’s an instruction sheet in the box). The only real pain in the neck is being super disciplined—you have to drag yourself out of bed around 6:00 AM to take 2 tablespoons of the liquid (that was the dose for my weight) and then you can't eat a single thing for the next 2 hours.
After about 20 days or so, you start seeing the first signs of progress.
And man, what can I say? Not long after finishing that 6-month stretch of therapy, I wiped the psoriasis right off my body. Now I can actually go to the beach without a care. I still have some lingering spots on my scalp, specifically right along the hairline at the back.
It’s been 2 years since I stopped the treatment, and the psoriasis hasn't come back once.
Now, look, I’m no medical expert, but apparently, that liquid does some kind of genetic engineering—like, it modifies certain genes using specific minerals.
For local stuff, I’m currently using Dovonex ointment (Calcipotriol), a 30g tube, which I pick up in Canada because it’s cheapest there.

So yeah, those are my personal results. I should mention that I also followed a specific diet (they have one listed on the site), but I tweaked it a bit to align with my blood type.
I don't know how this will land with anyone else, and I'm not trying to be some hype man for this medicine, but the fact remains: this therapy gave me the best results I've ever seen. The only downside is that the whole thing isn't cheap by any means—but hey, you can blow cash on plenty of other things, and with this, I actually improved my quality of life.
Best wishes to everyone 🙂 👍
