I used to have arthritis pain all throughout my body, had pain for years and years, not until a friend of mine told me about an all natural, little known protein, did my pain go away.

I have Psoriatic Arthritis in my right wrist and right knee. But luckily for me the doctor told me that I have minimal symptoms which means that even though I was diagnosed with Psoriatic Arthritis. I don’t have Psoriasis.

Hallo Jacob,
you can try Ivy, cook 150 gram vom Ivy in 2 liter water, let it slowly cool down, than use it every day over your whole body as cleaning water, it helpd your skin a lot – I do it too – and it works. Good luck. TRY IT AND EVERYBODY OF YOU OUT THERE!!!
Ivy is antibiotic, antibacteriell – and so on…. no chemie

I have psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis and live in super hot Houston, TX. I’m 33 now and was diagnosed 7 years ago. It helps me more than I could ever put into words just hearing someone else going through what I go through.

It’s every year, and in 2010 it’s being held in Philadephia Pennsylvania – probably the second week in July.

By dave4264 on May 5th, 2010 at 1:22 pm

By dave4264 on May 5th, 2010 at 2:11 pm

carrying on from below: and i live in london, which has really cold weather a lot of the time, which does not help with anything!

By dave4264 on May 5th, 2010 at 2:59 pm

carrying on from the comment below: and i live in london, which has very cold weaher most of the time, which makes everything worse.

By dave4264 on May 5th, 2010 at 3:54 pm

hi, my story is that i developed psorasis when i was 3, and then arthritis when i was 6, which has now spread to every joint in my body. I also have crohns to top it all off. My psorasis is pretty bad, so I have to walk around in long trousers and jumpers just to hide it. I completely agree with jacob with everything he says. I am on methotrexate injections weekly, along with an infusion every 6 weeks which I have to be on all day. It sucks when your 18 and have to go through this all your life!

Yes, that was me! Are you coming to the one in July in Houston this year?

By jordzeepie on May 5th, 2010 at 5:14 pm

Hey did you go to the “kids get arthritis too” conference in L.A. in July last year?
I went over from New Zealand and i swear i recognise you?

I have had this same condition for about 5 years myself. I just recently discovered DMSO for the arthritis from Dr Stanley Jacobs. You can get it online and it will give you your life back as far as the arthritis but as far as the psoriasis itself, i use MG 217 Sal-Acid Ointment. It removes all the scales associated with it but does not prevent them from re-forming. It is great to have something that removes them completely when it forms really thick. Also rub on Colloidal Silver liquid.

ive had it now for nearly two years, i lived a very healthy life and active life up til that point, with body building, martial arts, hill running. then all of a sudden everything went tits up. the life i’d been living for 22 yrs had gone. its a terrible terrible illness. but i persisted with herbal remedies and natural solutions and refused drugs etc, and now im doing a lot better, i can walk without a limp, i can clench my fists, my nails aren’t as bad and i went on a run only a month ago,

Anyone heard of pomegranate or hyssop as a cure for psoriasis??.

By rarebasses on May 5th, 2010 at 7:31 pm

You can talk with me if you’d like. I’ve had it 5 years now. It gets worse and worse everyday and I had to quit my job last year from it.

By rarebasses on May 5th, 2010 at 8:16 pm

People don’t understand when I tell them I can’t do things, I guess because you can’t see pain on the outside. Just to know there are others out there seems to help.

By rarebasses on May 5th, 2010 at 9:07 pm

Hey, here’s my story. I got Psoriatic Arthritis about 5 years ago. I’ve been off and on Humira injections due to getting infections. In 2005 I rode the MS150 on my bicycle, now I can’t even climb on it.
Getting up in the morning is the worse! My P is not that bad, but the PsA part makes up for it. I applied for dissablilty 3 years ago and I’m still waiting a hering date. Sometimes I wish I had cancer or something else because at least there would be a end insite.
