Psoriatic Arthritis & Skin Psoriasis: Nicole S. O’Shea's Journal (& Journey)

Like thousands of us, I'd seen Nicole's video interview* months ago & just recently stumbled onto her journals over at Dr. John McDougall's site (for anyone who's interested) 🤗 :

• Part 1 (Jan. 2011 - June 2014), 96 pages: Psoriatic Arthritis Journal - 2.5 year Update Page 63 : drmcdougall.com/forums/view...

• Part 2 (June 2014 - Jan. 2017), 9 pages: Psoriatic Arthritis Journal 2- Equation for Change: drmcdougall.com/forums/view...

Jennifer is another Psoriatic Arthritis-er (PsA-er) who’s been an inspiration to me.

.

Reversing Psoriatic Arthritis - Jennifer's Massive Recovery:

m.youtube.com/watch?v=bckeL...

Transcript: paddisonprogram.com/reversi...

.

Discussed how:

• Jennifer wasn’t able to walk before starting PP

• She was very strict with it

• She’s now able to walk, drive & exercise

• She was diagnosed Psoriatic Arthritis

• She went on Sulfasalazine & had a really bad reaction

• Being worried about liver damage she didn’t switch to Methotrexate

• It took her 2 years to get off Prednisone

• She doesn’t take any medications & her pain levels are good

• Her family has been extremely supportive throughout the process

Thank you kindly, Nettac (& Lrcjvl) for finding & sharing Dr Arvind Kaul’s ( londonbridgehospital.com/LB... ) 2012 presentation: Medicine for members: Psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. 🙏 😌

Much, much appreciated. 🙏 (Grateful for his forthrightness, plain speak, & stating unvarnished truths. ⚖️ )

It’s been about 5-6 years on now & I suspect Dr. AK is aware of the evolution of care/ treatments not only for Psoriasis & Psoriatic Arthritis/ (PsA) ( healthunlocked.com/cure-art... ), Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) ( healthunlocked.com/cure-art.... ), & Lupus ( healthunlocked.com/cure-art... ), but for the panoply of interrelated/ overlapping flavours of Autoimmune illnesses ( healthunlocked.com/cure-art... ).

There’s more realistic hope nowadays than we can shake a stick 🥢 at! 🤗

The multiplicity of approaches increases our probability of improved QoL (Quality of Life) all round. 👍👍

Kindly allow any depressing 😞 / grim 😨 thoughts to dissipate by considering Dr. Pam Popper on How to Become an Informed Patient:

• Video (full, uninterrupted 37 minutes): facebook.com/leangreenDAD/v... (click on video (thumbnail image) under caption "Dr. Pam Popper shares how to become an informed patient . . . "

• Audio (45 minutes): Dr. Pam Popper Can Help You Help Yourself! leangreendad.com/2018/03/05... [Originally noted for Msant1net at ( healthunlocked.com/nras/pos... ) & for NicolaP at ( healthunlocked.com/nras/pos... ).]

.

Both of their works (Drs. AK & PP) (& their deep understanding) dovetail beautifully. 🕊

There is abundant realistic hope — today — more than we can shake a stick 🥢 at. (We just need to make sure we don’t hit ourselves over the head with the stick. ) 😳 🙃 😁

.

😌 🙏 🍀 🌺 🌞
