"Psoriatic nurse counselling"

About: Royal Alexandra Hospital / Rheumatology

(as a parent/guardian),

I have been struggling with psoriatic arthritis and have taken 7 doses of cosentyx. Unfortunately this product has had no benefit to me, which has left me in great pain. I have struggled to see a consultant or doctor.

Fortunately, I gained an appointment with Nurse Nicola, who checked all my joints and explained that the medication was not having the desired effect, so I shall be switched to something else. Having met with Nicola, she has given me a steroid injection, arranged for a consultant to look at my swollen ankle, arranged with Dr Laws that I start a different medication. Educated me on this product and explained how to switch on to it when it arrives.

Nichola has been fantastic and I now feel like I’m being looked after in a way that I appreciate!

Many thanks Nicola
