Can You All Share Your Psoriasis Arthritis Story's How It First Started, What Signs And Symptoms You Started Having And How It Progressed
Hi Brody, I was first diagnosed with PSA when I was 30. The jerk doctor told me I would be in a wheelchair by 40. I'm 62. no chair. I follow a clean, whole-food, anti-inflammatory diet. Low histamine and low Oxalate. As much organic as possible and no chemicals or plastics anywhere. It's a constant battle but I am not going down without a fight. The slow lowering of oxalate foods has been a big game changer. I battle the sugar and carb monsters but every day is a good day to start again. Detoxing is a priority to remove the toxins from the joints. I am an herbalist and I do not take any meds for anything. I use herbal medications only.
Iām praying for you galie š
And believe me when I say that she is great with any problems, Brody! My OA will put me in a whell chair before the PsA will! I have taken out, breads, cakes, cookies-desserts, pasta, potatoes, rice and no box mixes. But it doesn't help my knees or shoulder. But still on certain meds. I have to deal with caring for hubby, all of the housework, bills, laundry, MDs, and most of the yard now. No time out but a few hours upstairs away from him.
Hi Brodey! I was too young to remember on my own only what mom and dad had told me. We did go to a skin MD. He did give me a Cortisone shot that made my Peditrician very upset. We did sun and salt water after that for years. Dead Sea Salt is good too. A UV lamp. Dad brought buckets home during the cold months. We enjoyed taking hot meals-spaghetti and meatballs or a full Thanksgiving dinner! By 17 in time for college I wa cleared completely. I did break out in spots when I got married. Womack Army Hospital die a biopsy and said that it was a form of psoriasis, but they went away too. In my 50s I stated with OA and PsA. PsA trigger by French Fries and Chips! OA onset with heavy moving things and gardening or washing floor or picking weeds on hands and knees. Still no replacements. I get shots. Being a caregiver who would run the house, feed the cats and take care of Dan? I only leave him alone for a few hours during the day for errands once a week. I did do the ambulance in the middle of the night and told him where to find me when he woke up. He is losing his marbles with his 3 strokes and swollen organs-cancer? But he still drives 20 over the limit and sometimes a turn on a red. I do not trust him alone. I have a GPS tracker in my car.
