I’m considering quitting biologics

I’ve been on them since February and all it does for me is help with stiffness. Now, I’m not saying it’s not helpful at all, because that is. It’s just… no longer feeling worth it to me. You see, I got MRSA somehow that started in my nose. My rheumatologist was informed of this and still cleared me for my biologic injections. I noticed that I have not been healing much at all from this infection despite topical and oral antibiotics. I’m 27 years old and my friend in her 40s was killed from MRSA not long back. I’ve seen the havoc it can wreak. All of this to say that the biologics have severely lowered my immune system and now I’m here. This has been a terrifying experience. I believe I got MRSA from the hospital I was in due to GI complications from something that’s autoimmune but not even related to spondyloarthritis. When you’re on biologics, you are a high risk due to the lower immune system. I was so sure I’d be fine, but I’m being proven that I’m not. I no longer trust biologics and I should have listened to my gut instead of listening to the rheumatologist that told me to continue treatment despite my MRSA. Thanks for listening to my rant, friends
