Guest guest Posted August 17, 2008 Report Share Posted August 17, 2008 I am new to the group and also have fibromyalgia along with the arthritis and psoriasis. I was only diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis last year after several weeks of terrible pain in my foot and toe and difficulty walking, severe sciatica and headaches. I have had psoriasis for about 15 years. After taking methotrexate for several months, I got better but had a bad flare up this summer. Do any of you have this problem: My arms hurt so bad and are so sore that I can barely lift anything until noon or later. The longer I am up, the less pain I have. I work every day, travel a lot and do some procedures that are very tiring. I work in home health. I am an RN but some of these pains are so different than any I've ever had. I need some help and support. Maybe someone can enlighten me on some of the bizarre pains I am having. Also, it feels as if the tissue has been stripped from my ribs and sternum. Sometimes it is all I can do to keep from screaming when I turn over. I take several other medications but started on Enbrel injections today. Have had the medication for some time but had to wait until I had some dental work. Thank you, anyone who might help. Sherry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
