why do I feel extreme fatigue and joint pain with psoriasis
hello I have gone through your reports considering the symptoms and medications you are taking I would like to know a few more details how is the sleep pattern do you get enough sleep or is it disturbed any early morning fatigue any dryness of eyes or mouth do you experience any joint swellings any recent history of irritability any forgetfulness which has developed recently as per the investigations and ongoing treatment my suggestions would be didna has not much relevance in your case it looks like a false positive value mainly cause ana is negative and ear and cop are normal you are on too high dose of prednisolone which is not good for bones and psoriasis as well we need to cut down on the dosing methotrexate may be a good option as psoriasis can cause a lot of joint pains itself which will get better with it also it is a good drug for removing steroids
