Guest guest Posted August 26, 2010 Report Share Posted August 26, 2010 Hi everyone, I was diagnosed with PsA in Feb 2009. Since then I have tried several treatments, and am currently on Plaqunil, Advil, and tramadol (for pain). Mornings are so awful... I cannot hardly move. I am exhausted from the night before from tossing and turning and not getting but 2 hours sleep. My legs and hips really hurt at night. Places like Wal-Mart, Target, and the mall make me wanna cry. By the time I even walk from the parking lot to the door, I am already exhausted. I did have a handicap tag but my dr will not renew it due to the fact my last set of x-rays came back normal. If they are normal then why am I still in pain? I live in Dallas and the heat it killing me. It makes my body swell so badly that I am miserable. We have been having days in that the actual temp was 107. Does the heat effect anyone else negatively? The winter weather is achey for me but not as painful as the heat. What does everyone do besides take meds to help with the pain and stiffness? Any advice would be so great! Thanks, Kasey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
