Re: My daughter's diagnosis

[Guest guest]

Hi wanted to tell you i have psoriatic arthritis. Sorry to hear about your

daughters,

but thank goodness she got seen early. My doctor tells me psoriatic is evil

it destroys

quick. Ive not had an outbreak of my psoriasis since i started methotrexate

a year ago.
