in Living with arthritis

Hello

My name is Angela and am 45 years of age. I was diagnosed with Psoriatic Arthritis at 19. I lost my mum 4 years ago and my joints have been a big oroblem and struggle to get relief. Currently on infliximab and methotroxaite. I was overdue my infliximab by a month due to a hospital admission but had it yesterday and it seems i have had a reaction in that small blisters / sores have appeared on my hand and fingers which are quite sore. Anyone else had this problem ?

Thanks

Angela

    Hi Angela nice to meet you. I see you have PsA quite a lot of people here have it too so you're not alone.

    I just want to say (I am not on Infliximab) but I sometimes get a rash on mu hands palms between fingers which look like small blisters to start with.

    The GP said it was eczema in my case and certainly steroid cream did fix it.

    Another member here called it pompholyx when he used to get something similar.

    Just a thought maybe a quick word with a pharmacist?

    Take care

    Toni xx
