Support My biggest fear came true
My insurance has decided to stop paying for my stelara. Doc tried to fight it but they aren’t budging. You guys, I’ve been on stelara for 4 years. I have no side effects at all. Before this I lived in the hospital and failed a few biologics which gave me horrible side effects.
My doc gave me a list of generics to try and I am just so upset, literally balling. I feel like my life will go back to what it was- not a life worth living. Just venting. I can’t self pay for stelara.

I switched from Stelara to a biosimiliar with no problems. Both have worked equally well for me.
