Are there tests for psoriatic arthritis?

Interesting thread this   .
But I think it might have turned me into a hypochondriac. Are all these twinges and random aches the start of PSa or am I just getting old  .

I have had a dodgy left ankle since my mid teens. Nothing wrong on Xrays, Quacks put it down to muscular. To me it felt like I had 2 screwdrivers rammed into the joint and someone was trying to prize it apart (pain index = 11/10). By the end of the day I just couldn't walk on it. The pain did die down over the years but seems to be making a comeback recently. Maybe I need to start asking the question - Could I have had PSa all this time?

 John I'm the hypochondriac on this forum there's not room for 2

But reading things here does tend to make you wonder I agree ... Hopefully neither of us have got it
