Hi Sherry, I linked and googled many combinations . however i failed to find

it. I wonder if any of you PA group suffers from the same problem. Aortic Valve

Disease after many years of PA. I'm 52 now. I'm sick since I've been 25.

Thanks

There seems to be a link, although it is not known to be causal. There

is a lot of research being done on this. It appears to be more closely

linked with ankylosing spondilitis than with other forms of PA,

although it has been reported in all forms.

You can Google for " psoriatic arthritis " " aortic valve " and get lots of

hits of abstracts of current research.

My first symptom was Gout, it then proceeded to osteomyelitis; p. pa, RA,

Lupus. Not a very fun group.

Please take care.

Audrey, Hi

Your expression: " turning into a rock " made me laugh. I usually say that I am

like a stick.

I do know that aortic valve disease go together with Rheumatoid Arthritis. This

is what the Dr.s call a scientific fact.

However I have no written information or scientific facts connecting the disease

with PA. All I hear from my doctors is that the two could go together, but

there is no research. I would appreciate any information.

Thank you very much. I do hope the Humira and Methotrexate will help you better

than they did me.

I heard from my Rhuemy, that it can cause a leaky aortic valve which

is what I think you are talking about.
