Jennifer's Journey With PsA
I was diagnosed almost eleven years ago... I’ve had psoriasis since I was six years old. I’ve been able to manage pretty easily with OTC’s, topicals, warm baths, and then mild scripts such as meloxicam up until the last couple years... the pain and loss of function have increased dramatically.

I thought of leaving, but I know I’ll deal with this wherever go, so why start the battle anew. I just want to stay under my quilt.
