Hello everynoe!
I've been diagnosed with PsA (about 4 months ago). My symptoms are not severe yet (plantar fascitis, some pain in the wrists when typing too much, and lately, also pain in my index fingers when using the computer long hours).
The Dr wants to start me on methrotrexate but I'm a bit hesitant.
As probably most of you, I've read about the benefits of some diets and would like to try. Gluten, tomatoes, dairy, citrids... so many. I've kind of started myself avoiding gluten, dairy, alcohol and tryian to also reduce tomoatos, peppers, etc. Not sure if they are having any effect yet. I've only done it for 3-4 weeks on and off. I had some digestive problems for the last 3 years (not the right consistency, borderline with dhiarrhea) and it seems to be improving. Not sure if those digestive symptoms may be related to PsA or something else.
So, my questions:
1) Has anyone experienced similar digestive symptoms related to PsA?
2) Any guidelines, instructions, etc on how to start a diet? I've been told abotu an exclusion diet, but need some methodology
Thanks!
