If it's any help, when I had a bad outbreak my fingers used to swell up like sausages the same as you describe, and the joints got very sore - so I presume that's akin to psoriatic arthritis - but only my finger joints were affected.
I'm just over 3 months into my diet regime, and my hands have no swelling at all. The cuticles have started to re-attach to my nails, and the nails beds are also not raised and swollen so my nails now sit flush with my fingertips - before they were raised up with gunk growing between the nails and nail beds and also the brown looking oil spots under the nail. The nails themselves are still misshapen with lots of grooves and lumps but have started to grow out straight and normal looking from the base of the nail and the gunk and oil spots have now gone. I guess it will take 6 months or so until they completely grow out and start looking healthy again. Although I do have one nail that is totally unaffected and funnily enough that is one of the fingers that I hold my cigarettes in.
