wonderful!
Yipee!!! More reasons to be thankful this week!!! I am SO glad for YOU!!!
Bless your heart!!!! I hate that for you!!! I had psoriasis as a child (a mild case) that just disappeared after I became a teenager.. then I started suffering with all the swelling etc.. to the point I couldn't walk.. I went 11 yrs or so misdiagnosed.. I went to more doctors than I can remember all telling me the same thing.. which was false.. even had one dr BREAK my shin bone and move it.. I was in wheel chairs, used walkers, etc... and I JUST turned 33... very young in my opinion to be in that kind of "unexplained" pain.
I know that I can't understand your exact pain, but with this website, there are more people on here that have similar situations and can comprehend.. which I'm sure, no one in your immediate life does!
I know the feeling of just giving up.. I was there! I felt the same way.. after 3 surgeries and then my knee started swelling worse than it was before.. then my other knee.. my elbow.. my hip.. my fingers etc... I couldn't even walk into a dr's office without breaking down in tears.. I had been told there was "nothing wrong with me" or that "there was nothing they could do for me" so many times it was pathetic..
When I finally met my Rheumatologist.. I broke down in his office and squalled like a baby.. and continued to do so, every time I went, until they finally found a "mixture" of drugs that actually started working..
That seems to be the experience with most people with our disease.. NO ONE can be treated the same.. what works so well for one, doesn't work at all for others.. you have to find "your mix".. I hope you find "your mix" very soon!!! and can one day, not just feel as good as I do, but even better!!!!!

head to toe and my Plaque Psoriasis will be 100 % worse than what you
