Is there anyone who can live with the psa when under correct medications

Hello I'm going to be started on meds etc on 23rd and I'm housebound in horrible pain.im scared more now Incase nothing works as I can't live this way

  1. Hi , I'm so sorry that you've been in so much pain lately, my heart breaks for you❤️‍🩹 There are plenty of people who can live with PsA under correct medications, but it can be a struggle to get there. If it's okay to ask, what medication will you be starting? - Abigail, Team Member

    1. I've been told in clinic there going to start with injections and long term course of dmards including methotrexate

      1. Ps had bad fall today on concrete when I tried to walk and seized up it's got me so down as I couldn't get upx

        1. Oh that's awful, ! I'm so sorry that you've had such a bad fall. I'm wishing you plenty of rest and comfort these next few weeks💗
          I see! I'll be praying that methotrexate will be able to help you and bring you the relief you deserve! If it's alright to ask, is this your first medication your trying? - Abigail, Team Member

        2. , Oh my goodness!! I am so sorry you fell. I'm 67 and got up on a step ladder to hang curtains a few days ago, and down I went. I hurt my leg, but I'm okay now. Is this your first time taking Methotrexate? I take it along with a biologic. it is trial and error to find what really works for us. You get some rest and stay off that leg. Let us know how you are doing. Diane (Team Member)

      2. Does your methotrexate and biologic help you with mobility please
