Psoriatic Arthritis

I take anti-inflammatory for psoriatic arthritis. Can I take folic acid (B9) without problem?

Will the folic acid reduce the effectiveness of the anti-inflammatory?

My father told me he was diagnosed recently with it, after having the skin desease that occurs before the arthritis usually. This is a recent messege i’ve sent to him over myspace with a responce. And any advice you have that i can give to him is greatly appreciated. This is a serious illness. It can be life altering for him, he’s got a wife and two children, he’s 29. So i’d love it if somehow i could help him using your advice. I have already prayed for him.

Help with psoriatic arthritis?

My sister has a terrible case of psoriatic arthritis, and it appears to be taking over her body. She is terribly itchy, and her joints are beginning to creak, and she is only 18! She is very embarassed by the rash, and the physical symptoms are a bother to her, and I hate to see her going through this. Her dermatologist has recommended a shot that she has to give herself weekly, but insurance is taking months to approve this, and I have heard this can cause acute kidney failure. What can she do until this is approved? And does anyone know of better options?
