I think if she insists I will just tell her to forget it and just deal with the "psoriasis" and when I need I will manage with pain management tablets perhaps...I'm not at that point yet ....
They tried it here Jim. I went for a joint consultation with a rheumatologist and dermatologist but they sent a trainee dermatologist and a head rheumatologist only keen on methotrexate. So I went back to my Head Dermatologist where I'm happy.
Jim don't take this the wrong way, but if you do have the onset of psoriatic arthritis at your age you are lucky and it takes a while before it gets to the stage of ruining your life. So by the time it gets very bad you will be a lot older and not so active and it will be easier to live with.
I would say forget about psoriatic arthritis and just keep going with Fumaderm. It works for you, you're happy with the results and your bones haven't stopped you going out and enjoying your retirement. So carry on as you are, enjoy what you have now and worry if/when it gets unbearable.
