Hi Starfrost,
Welcome to psoriasisclub.
If you read on through all posts you will finally conclude that there are a number of triggers that can lead to psoriasis. Among them there are stress, maltreatment of the skin, operation scars, etc.
In my vision, as you already have a diagnosed RA, so already something is wrong with your immune system, it is not strange that you unfortunately also developed psoriasis.
Mataribot already said a number of sensible things. Allthough the difference between PsA and RA are large, they both have a source that is in your immune system. So basically the treatment you already get might also work for psoriasis, but apparently isn't. It may however well be that another treatment works for both.
Fred will welcome you very soon, when he is out of his bed, he had a late night in the bar yesterday , and he will tell you something on a good working moisturiser.
I also think more members will come with ideas.
Have a good time over here with us.
Caroline
