Subject: Psoriatic Arthritis Question.
Hello All, Was diagnosed as having P/Arthritis about 2 months ago. Are one of this ilnesses symptoms tiredness and a definite lack of energy..? I asked my GP the same question but he seemed pretty vague on the subject. Am currently waiting to see a Rheumatologist but thats not for about three weeks. Thanks.

Hi Connor I've got RA but most arthritis has similar symptoms fatigue being a very common one. Treatment for all forms of artritis is the same. It's good that you are seeing a rheumy. Go prepaired I'd write down everything about your illness especially your worst day. Also write down the questions you want answered. Often the Docs overwhelm you and you forget to ask because your trying to take in what they are saying. Also if your not firm with them they often fob you off without adequate treatment. It's hard but worth it to get on the best meds. Good luck
