So sorry it wasn't helpful. I sure understand wanting to stay away from biologics. Thank you for your input.

I hv been on xeljanz for about 2 years and am now off it.
I hv lost most of my hair, had itchy skin and scoriasis. Also hv had exhausting days when I do nothing!!! I could hardly stay awake. Not sure if I will start another biological.
