Hello - I have been on Remicade and biosimilars over 20 years. Overall, I have done well on this treatment until the past year or so. In 2023 I was switched from Inflectra to Avsola, then this year I was switched from Avsola to Renflexis. During this time, I experienced some skin issues that after a year and going to two Dermatology Offices were diagnosed as Granuloma Annulare (it is a raised circular rash.)
Today, after yet another skin biopsy I was told that I have Interstitial Granulomatous Disease, which apparently is a rare condition. My Dermatologist explained that the condition is caused by my arthritis and the treatment is getting better control over my arthritis. The Dermatologist indicated that this was not a drug induced rash.
Has anyone else experienced similar skin issues? It has been frustrating!
Thanks,
Karen
