Has anyone else tried Steqeyma for their psoriasis or other inflammatory conditions? I've been on it for a few months now, and I've seen some improvement, but I'm worried about the potential side effects. The list is pretty long and scary. Has anyone experienced any of the more serious side effects? I'd love to hear from others who are on this medication and how they're managing their concerns. I've checked with my doctor, but personal experiences can be a real game-changer in understanding what to expect.

I had horrible stomach pain for the first few weeks. It was really hard to decide if it would be worth it and stick it out or if it wasn't for me. I stuck with it and things got much better.

Can anyone share any tips for managing the injection site irritation? It's really been a pain. Especially at first.

I've had a few episodes of sore throat and general fatigue, but it's manageable. I actually didn't know about the PRES symptoms, though. You should ask your doctor if they monitor for that, too!

I've been on Steqeyma for almost a year now for my Crohn's disease. It's been a lifesaver in terms of managing flare-ups, but I did experience some initial issues like severe dizziness and a few painful injections. It's worth sticking it out to see if your body adjusts. I had a similar list to you: symptoms to watch out for but I haven't had any major issues since then.

I'm just starting out on Steqeyma and I'm kind of freaking out about the side effects list. Has anyone found any good ways to manage the anxiety?

I've been on Steqeyma for my ulcerative colitis and it's been a game-changer. I did experience some nose and throat irritation at first and that is always no fun. Make sure you talk to your doctor about all your concerns; they can really help guide you through those side effects.

I had a weird rash at first, but my doctor told me it was likely just a reaction to the injection and not the medication itself. It cleared up in a few days. My experience has been pretty positive overall but everyone's body is different!

Steqeyma has been a nightmare for me. I got severe UTIs and painful skin sores. I had to stop taking it. My doctor said it happens sometimes but I didn't want to worry about a UTI or random skin sores again.

I've had Steqeyma for 3 months now and it's made a big difference in my Crohn's. I didn't notice any of the major side effects on your list, and luckily my doctor was able to help me with the common ones I did experience.

I tried Steqeyma for my psoriatic arthritis, but the headaches and muscle aches were too much to handle. I ended up switching to a different medication.
