Ilumetri for psoriatic arthritis Fred's journey

[D Foster]

I'm very happy for you that the arthritis is mostly controlled.  

I think your doctor is going to be pleased that Ilumetri is working.  Is there a topical pain reliever that helps the ankle pain?

Thank you FW, no there is nothing that helps the ankle apart from plenty of Merlot or paracetamol (which I only take if it's very bad)

The problem is fluid on the ankle and rheumatology don't seem interested, probably because I've always said they are useless. 

Fluid on the ankle? I would guess fluid in the ankle…. Or is that a way of saying?

Yes it's just the way I said it, a bit like I would say "water on the knee" which I have also had. But yes technically it's inside. 

It's not a swelling from the Achilles tendon and not the ankle as such.
