Reply To: Arthritis in young people

I’ve been to a rheumotologist (not endo..) I’ve been diagnosed close to 4 years ago and I don’t think there is much question about what it is. (I know diagnoses can change along with further research etc… but as of know, I am not really looking for different ideas of what it can be.) Isn’t arthritis an autoimue disease itself? I really have a combination of 2 different ai diseases, arthritis and psoriasis, called psoriatic arthritis. So it is very unlikely that I was misdiagnosed.

I am on a prescribed medicine that I think is an anti inflammatory. Iboprofen helps but I don’t think it’s strong enough and I’m not sure if it can be used long term
