Weird PsA symptoms
On a couple of occasions when I have been experiencing a flare, I have been unable to eat or drink anything hot. I discovered that I could only eat cold foods and needed to add ice to anything liquid. Just the thought of hot food would make me nauseous. This would subside as my flare ended. Anyone else ever experience this?
Hi
that definitely is a weird symptom. I personally have not heard of or experienced anything like that. I'm sure some of our great community members will chime in on this and might can answer that question for you. Have you brought this up with your doctor when it happens? Vickie W., Team Member 
That sound different, but I have noticed that some food that I love, I can't handle right now and unfortunately I am in a flare and a nasty outbreak of psoriasis under my breast.( Makes wearing a bra a trick at times). I have also noticed that some foods have no taste which is frustrating also. The one thing I have learned is having PSA is a true learning experience.
, I had not really thought about this with regards to food before, but I cannot tolerate heat anymore - especially when I'm flaring. So if it's hot outside (or inside!) I don't want anything hot to eat or drink. Thinking about it, if I'm flaring or having a bad day I feel like my insides are/blood is boiling, and therefore adding any heat just feels awful. Do you ever have that feeling of your insides being hot? Really curious to hear others' experiences with this! Warmly, -Catherine, Community Moderator Absolutely 💯 relate to this. I can be just sat and it feels like I'm burning up from the inside out. I thought it was just menopausal but maybe its psa related too , I'm sorry you can relate - it's a really uncomfortable feeling isn't it? Have you ever checked your temperature when this is happening? A few people have mentioned that they run a low-grade fever sometimes with PsA. I haven't personally experienced that, but my body temperature is generally on the cooler side anyway (which makes it even stranger that I feel like I'm boiling alive!). If you get a chance, it could be worth getting your doctor's thoughts on this. Hoping today is kind to you! -Catherine, Community Moderator
In the wintertime it does get cooler but not like some climates that have snow. The nice thing is the cooler weather seems to decrease some of my flares. But only time will tell.
, that's good about the cooler weather and your flares. It's interesting how our bodies all seem to prefer different types of weather. Hoping some cooler weather isn't too far off for you now that September is approaching. Wishing you a gentle day today! 💖 -Catherine, Community Moderator
