[QUOTE="Bugsy, post: 163978, member: 1680"] I was wondering if anyone has or knows anything about psoriatic arthritis. I was diagnosis with severe ulcerative colitis in 91. I had my large intestine and rectum removed. I have done very well until I had a head to toe outbreak of gutate psoriasis in 04. With injections of enbrel it cleared up. I had a second severe out break in 07. Shocking to my Dr. the psoriais cleared up again with enbrel. She said she ahs never seenit completly clear up twice. During this second time I told the dermatologist how good I feel on the enbrel. I am usually stiff and achy. She explained the connection between body pain and psoriasis and why the enbrel helped. Well, I have been off of the enbrel for a few months and my body/joint pain, stiffness, (especially in my lower back, hips, shoulder and knees) are worse then ever. I am making an appoinment with a rheumatologist, but was wondering about anybody's personal experience. I am keeping a big weight lose off and have been very committed to exercising. I am hoping that maybe I can learn knew ways to exercise. Without staying exercise focused I fear I will put the weight back on quickly. thanks for any info, bugsy's mom [/QUOTE]
