know that feeling feel for u i get it to where to only way i can explain is it feels like the worst flu aches you ever had times 10 . when every single joint and i mean every single joint how ever many hundred or in the body aches from my pinky finger to my pinky toe psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis are a bitch definitely feel 4 u

I literally feel your pain, I was just saying that very same thing to my husband today. I was fixing dinner and the pain is unbearable almost to tears. I could not even do my yoga today:'( it usually keeps me going. I do not take anything for my PSA or Fibro other then pain meds but, days like this is when I wish I was on any biologic by drip to hit my vains quickly.

So, I'm truly sorry for what you are going through. I wish none of us had to endure this but, at least we all have each other to get us through this. I could not imagine having to take care of small children my heart goes out to you. I wish you the best and know your not alone.

thanks............sometimes i forget im not the only one..........
the body aches are relativly new so i am not used to them yet, and it is like flu aches, even where you dont have PsA aches.
dont like to moan to much at home coz it feels like its all i do. thankyou for the suport needed it today. hopefully tommorrow will be better. xx

I feel exactly the same. Have had a really bad flare up for the past month and just seems to get worse each day. I have been in tears the past 4 nights from the pain and sheer exhaustion. And I feel like all I do is complain anymore. My husband listens and sympathizes, but I am sure he is sick of hearing about it. It is just so hard to take care of everyone and everything you need to take care of when your body is screaming at you to just stop! My mother was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer and suffered brain damage from her radiation treatments and so for the past 7 months I have had the stress of caring for her added to the stress of working full time and raising two teenagers who are extremely involved in sports. My days are non stop from 5 am to 9 at night. By 6pm I am fighting off the tears. And then when I finally do get to fall asleep I wake up every two hours. I feel like a 70 year old in a 40 year old's body. So I too know exactly how you feel. So sorry we all have to go through this.
