I've just been seen by my rheumatologist for a review of my PsA and now diagnosed with this condition on the soles of my feet.  Has anyone else had this too?

      It's a rash like blisters - as if someone's been at my soles with a potato peeler - the rheumatology nurse asked if I'd been picking at my feet when she saw it.

    Hi , yes I have suffered from it on my feet a long time and my feet are quite painful at times. Have to wear flat shoes constantly now.

    Hi .....my best friend has recently been diagnosed with PA sadly , she has it on her feet, not all over, but some scaly bits, which doctor agreed it's part and parcel of this condition.....I think many people have some or all the symptoms, some will be severe, some less so...I have Reiters Disease, which has caused me to have chronic Inflammatory Arthritis....so I understand your pain....anyway a, not sure if my comment has helped or not....but I felt I had to let you know that my best friend has it on her feet too....keep well as beat you can

      Hi Jill, thanks for your comment. It does help hearing from other people believe me. I suffer from depression to and people think because you look ok you are fine. They don't understand the pain,the psoriasis , the depression. So it is lovely to hear from people who do suffer this complaint and the different ways it has effected their life. As you have probably read it's been very hard for me to accept especially as it's aggressive and in all my joints. It's had a huge impact on my lifestyle as I was so active and you are just not able to do what you did. Fatigue is a problem to me as I have had to cut down my hours at work because of feeling so tired and worn out all the time. Please keep in touch thank you again Jill
