What Causes Psoriatic Arthritis Along With High BP And Diabetes?
I have an interesting combination of symptoms and nobody can figure it out. I am 70. I was diagnosed by Dr. Hans Strauss at 19 with myoclonic seizures. I was on mostly phonolbarb for many years. Allergic to Dilantin. Now I ve been diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis, Raynaud s, high blood pressure, IBS & diabetes, both of which I handle with diet. Everyone in my family with Type B blood have auto-immune disease. My niece also has Raynaud s...she and my lately disease cousin have antiphosolipid (spelling?) antibodies, my cousin in Israel has Crohn s. Mom supposedly died of colon cancer at 51......50 years ago Crohn s? Mess always give me something else to worry about...any ideas?

Hello,
As first-line management, you can take analgesics like paracetamol or aceclofenac for pain relief.
Consult a rheumatologist and get evaluated.
Detailed evaluation is required.
