I just reached the part where you discuss medications. I do not tolerate Methotrexate, and refuse to try it again. Cartexan helped tremendously, but lowered kidney function to 62%. I am currently left with Prednisone as the only helpful medication, and it's known for bad side effects.

Finally, at age 62, this has become obvious after a lifetime of misdiagnoses. I went from RA to Lupus, back to RA, then Dermatitis Myositis?, Crohns, ending with Collagenous Colitis. The odd acute arthritis in the shoulders/elbows developed shortly before being hospitalized from septic shock. The sepsis developed from Staph Aureus entering the blood stream from the intestines. One elbow was permanently damaged while in the hospital. My granddaughter calls it my Barbie arm, because it's permanently bent like some of her dolls. The psoriasis first appeared on my legs a month after being released from the hospital. It took 4mths to remove the staph Aureus bacteria which completely infiltrated all muscles/organs up to 90% of the body. I had to learn to walk again due to permanent damage to the spine. Now, I find myself here learning how to get control over the psoriasis. I've always had inflammatory arthritis since childhood in most joints, but the elbows and psoriasis have occurred only in the past two years. No one in my family has ever heard of arthritis in the elbows. The psoriasis is mostly on the legs and torso. Now, that I know what it is, I think I've always had it. In the past, it was short lived. I thought it was an allergy to certain soaps and reactions to the sun.

After trying plaquenil and methotrexate which lowered my white blood cells. My rheumatologist put me on cosentyx 150mg im. My insurance did no approve the loading dose, therefore I just went straight to the maintenance dose. It was working fine until 3 months ago when the psoriasis flared up. I also developed dry eye and mouth. My doctor now wants to rule out Sjogren's syndrome. I also jad two positive ANA. My doctor does not suspect Lupus.

Frozen shoulder is usually related to low estrogen or testosterone in women despite age.
