Rinvoq Upadacitinib Update - Then Adtralza/Adbry Tralokinumab

[@duranteoriginals7153]

I was on Dupixent for almost 1 year but I started to get swollen joints in my hands. I started Adbry about 1 month ago, but it still needs time to fully work. How are you doing on Adbry thus far? Itchy eyes are a side effect of both. Hopefully it will eventually calm down.

Thanks for the update. Glad to hear you're doing better. Would you say the Rinvoq completely stopped the itching and cleared the skin? Problem with my eczema is that I'm profusely scratching all the time and topical steroids are becoming less and less effective. My pigmentation has darkened significantly from head to toe. Does the Rinvoq actually normalize it?

[@EczemaWarrior]

So a few questions here. Yes, the Rinvoq stopped the scratching almost immediately. Like within two days for sure. I was also scratching like a madman to the point I would tear my skin up. I also have the pigmentation issue. This is from the eczema scars and scabs. Overtime these will go back to normal, but only with years of normalisation. The Rinvoq will not solve the pigmentation issue, only time (a lot of time!) will and even that is if the skin is undamaged. Look at my forehead - you will see white spots. These have been there for years - its fine, I deal with it.

Did you have fatigue from rinvoq??

[@EczemaWarrior]

Oh yeah. Massively! I was sleeping like 8-9 hours a night, and then dozing off at the office haha. I am now back on Rinvoq as I feel the overall benefits far outweighed the negatives. (about to post an update)
