Went from Psoriatic arthritis to fibromyalgia to osteoarthritis
Hello everyone. It’s been awhile since I’ve used this account. I was previously diagnosed with endometriosis. After two surgeries I’m mostly symptom free. Then found out I also have hemochromatosis. Psoriasis runs in the family as well as arthritis but no one I know of has gone to a specialist.

osteoarthritis alongside rheumatoid….
I’ve had RA and Fibromyalgia for a long time now, on meds and see rheumatologist regularly. I also, increasingly seem to have osteoarthritis- I’ve got real problems with my knees at the moment. My question is…… will both conditions be looked at by rheumatology or is the osteoarthritis another specialism

Leflunomide - has anyone had success on this?
Hi I’ve just started Leflunomide I really hope it works for me as I’ve failed methotrexate and Sulfasalazine due to bad side effects. Has Leflunomide been successful for anyone else? 🙂

very sore heels at the end of the day, up on a foot rest. They burn and ache and the skin is tight and dry.
my New Poiatrist did a fungal test and told me that she believed that my “ Psoriasis “ was actually Athlete’s foot that had spread to my soles, heels sides of the feet and toenails. I have been treating it as Psoriasis for years. After” Lamisil once “ my feet look better and my nails are clearly going

Hi, has anyone elected to stop Methotrixate due to the side effects and inconclusive RA diagnosis. Decided to stop as side effects outweigh benefits! Has anyone then moved on to controlling inflammation with alternatives like turmeric, devils claw or Chinese remedies. There has to be an alternative

Prolia
I have been advised to start with Prolia injections. I have osteoarthritist, rheumatoid arthritis, chronic kidney disease and lupus. Is there anyone who can tell me what to expect?

How to persuade GP?
I have an appointment with my GP soon and I'm planning to ask for a referral to a rheumatologist - how to I get her to refer me? I saw her previously and focused on my most problematic area, my spine. The x-ray apparently indicates wear and tear arthritis but symptomatically I don't fit that diagnosis

Methotrexate in the US
Since our Supreme Court has removed Roe v Wade allowing abortion something has happened that most did not expect. Women of reproctive age are being denied their methotrexate that they've been taking for years as a treatment for things like RA because it is also a drug used in abortions. I know that most
