Seeing a new rheumy tomorrow. I want to make it count. Any suggestions to prepare?
Here are my suggestions:
Write down questions and take them with you.
Take along a list of medications and supplements you currently take, as well as what meds you've been on in the past and how they've worked (or not) for you.
Discuss not only how you're feeling at the moment, but common issues you have, as well as what an intense flare is like for you.
Ask the doctor what experience s/he has with PsA, what treatment s/he recommends, and if s/he has any thoughts on non-medicinal remedies (physical therapy, massage, acupuncture, paraffin wax treatment, tens unit, dietary changes, etc.).
