About Me
I\'m 34, single and working in L&D in a telco firm in Sydney. Was diagnosed with Psoriatic Arthritis four years ago and find it very frustrating at times. To counteract this I do a lot of swimming and aqua aerobics, walking when my knee is not bad and meditation. Looking for a bright light at the end of the tunnel - being positive helps, but would like a bit more help from the medical world!

Hi Laurie Hope you find out for sure what you really have soon. My Specialists thought I had Lupus too…
