Is it Arthritis?

Hello everyone-

I have PsA, psoriatic spondylitis, fibromyalgia and chronic headaches/migraines, none of which are doing well. I saw my rheumatologist last week who, after hearing some of the worsening issues I’ve been dealing with, sent me to the lab to have four additional tests done, all checking for Lupus. My eyes have been getting worse (dry, scratchy, watery, and always painful) over the last four years despite prescription drops and I received an official diagnosis of Raynaud’s as well. I’m anxiously awaiting my test results and was wondering: do other people with Psoriatic Arthritis/Arthritis have these problems or does it sound more like Lupus?

I’ve been test for Sjögren’s about a dozen time. I had one positive that was ultimately ruled a false positive and have tested negative every other time!
