I feel defeated

I am 49 and was diagnosed with PsA this year. I have had psoriasis since I was around 12, my elbows and scalp, I was diagnosed in my mid 20's. I have started methotrexate and Enbrel for PsA, Enbrel not working, so starting Taltz this month. Symptoms, hurts when I stand or bend ,I'm starting to lose my grip with my hands, stiff walking, and every single day my face gets so hot, like a bad sunburn, a lot of perspiring, my entire head gets drenched with sweat everyday.I've taken cold showers tried ice packs, I have to wait until it passes. If anyone has this symptom please tell me what you use for relief. I would greatly appreciate it. Take care everyone.
