I'm new here

I may be new to this forum, but my psoriasis is very old and familiar!
It mainly affects my hands, feet, elbows and knees. Have tried hundreds of things over the years. Treatments seem to work at first then after a few weeks I have a flare up again.
I also have psoriatic arthritis now. I'm only 34 years old. My joints have hurt (mainly my knees) for the last 10 years but I only had a diagnosis a few years ago.

The only thing that has worked for me (for both my skin and joints) has been Methotrexate. But have reluctantly stopped taking it now...

Anyway that's my situation at the moment. I look forward to finding out how everyone else copes with this horrible, horrible, incurable condition! Bah!!!
