Hello! My name is David, and I am 27. I have just been diagnosed with Psoriatic Arthritis in my neck, back, and peripheral joints. 8 or nine years ago, I was diagnosed with Ankylosing Spondylitis and osteoathritis. I believe that people with arthritis who think they have been misdiagnosed should get a second opinion. You may not have the arthritis the doctor thinks you have.

In 2000-2001, I had a lot of surgeries due to my hydrocephalus. After the surgeries, I developed psorasis on the back of my head. Also, I have a weird rash on the top of my chest. I went to my doctor(a different doc than before) and he diagnosed me with psoratic arthritis. He put me on Sulfasazine, and so far it has been a miracle drug. I have just been on it for two weeks and my entire body and my outlook has improved greatly. My stomach is very sensitive to drugs, but my body has tolerated Sulfasalazine very well. Try Sulfasazine!

Thank You,

David Walker

That's interesting, I'm glad you're doign well. I have found that my skin is sensitive to sulfer based meds and it is not a good mix for me.
