Ormond Beach, FL

I have been told by my arthritic/allergy doctor I have all three arthritis's: rheumatoid, osteo, and psoriatic arthritis. I also psoritis on my skin. I also have Crohn's disease. Is it possible to have all three? How do you tell which one is causing the joint pain?

Thanks,
Marilyn

Yes, it is possible. Your Rhuematologist would have to do blood work to determine this but is very possible.

Sure. RA and PsA are going to lead to OA eventually. RA is just another autoimmune disease, whereas OA is not.
