Guest guest Posted May 16, 2010 Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 Hi, I just got diagnosed as having psoriatic arthritis on Thursday. I've had the swollen red toe since March 18th, was hospitalized on April 1st with blood clots (leg and lung) (can this have been related?) and have had the run-around medically since then. Except for a couple tiny spots, my rashes are all under clothing areas, altho I saw some ugly ones on an arm on a website. I have the swelling and aching joints too. I am constantly full of questions and hoping you can help me learn to live with this stuff. I am not yet divorced but separated, no child support or spousal support until we get finalized, whenever that is, and not working the last 2 months since this brought me down. So I have absolutely no income, but TG for food stamps, the kids (12 and 18) can eat. My older son just accused me (correctly) of always thinking about the disease. What am I supposed to think about? Sorry, having a little pity party! Sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
