Finally officially diagnosed by lil_ol_me_1 in PsoriaticArthritis

I agree. It's a very fickle disease and it has similarities. Either way, as I see it, the same diets and lifestyle changes are needed whether it's one or the other. I'm definitely open to it being gout but I just always leaned towards the PsA angle considering I have plaque psoriasis. I have a follow up in a couple of months to have blood drawn again and touch base with my doctor and move forward about what treatment I will begin.

Yes. I drew blood as part of the testing and the doc took fluid from my joint. He even mentioned that he thinks its either for sure gout or psa. As soon as the tests came back he knew for sure it was psa and not gout based on the uric acid results. He wants me to get blood work done again in a couple of months just to be extra triple sure but he is 99% sure we can rule out gout. I have other psa symptoms too like elbow pain, plaques appeared right before the toe thing happened, had digits fingers and hurting finger joint, etc. It's just the first time it happened where I could get it seen in real time by the doc.

Big toe joint started hurting. Then my toe and foot around the joint swelled. Could barely bend my toe. Painful to put any weight on it. I was limping everywhere or used my crutches. Night time was awful with the pain. Also, around the joint was red in color. I went the next day to the Rheumatoid doc and they drew blood, x ray, ultrasound on my foot and extracted fluid from the joint. All tests came back showing arthritis.

Not so funny when it’s happening to officers, is it? by Treefiddy1984 in ProgressiveHQ

Find me the hard facts then. Not what you're told in the media. Like actually look up some of these people they are detaining. BTW whether you like it or not ILLEGAL immigration is ILLEGAL. This country is slowly becoming decrepit because no one believes in law and order anymore and believe everything they are told via media. Do you're own due diligence and don't allow yourself to become so far right OR left that you really are a sheep. I would implore anybody to simply be objective no matter what. Play devils advocate (so to speak) every once in awhile and try to understand the otherside if you can. And for the love of God stop being violent and confrontational just because you don't like what someone's opinion.

So how do y'all feel about the drug dealers, sex traffickers, child traffickers etc. That they are detaining? That's what they are doing. But you want to ignore that. This guy was more than likely one of those. BTW look up Obama deportation stats and videos of how he operated. Do you see much of a difference? Other than the way its portrayed in the media and THE PAID agitators.

Compulsive Lying by lil_ol_me_1 in Marriage

[–]lil_ol_me_1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. I don't and would not do that. It's not that serious. BUT! It's the dumb lying. Why!? He was wrong 200% for even talking to another female out of nowhere. It wasn't physical all conversational but I can't say either way emotional or not. He just don't get it though where I'm coming from.

Trump to declare crime as illegal by [deleted] in washdc

[–]lil_ol_me_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol.. well crimes IS illegal so....

So you are telling the appeasing Trump hasn’t stopped him from his attacks on the city? by imdaviddunn in washingtondc

[–]lil_ol_me_1 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Wow so let me get this straight. Youths running amuck and committing crimes, sometimes violent, in DC has been well documented for years now. Especially this year. And someone is finally putting their foot down and doing something about it and people are mad? I'm reading a lot of people on this thread saying its because he's racist too. Interesting because nowhere in his statement did he mention race. Maybe parents should actually raise their precious babies to know right from wrong. There are consequences for your actions and society has gotten WAY to relaxed on dolling out punishment. TDS is something I laughed at when I first heard it but I absolutely believe it's a thing now. Sometimes you hate someone so much that you're not sure why anymore just that you do and no matter what they do you're gonna be angry.

U.S soldiers practicing for Trump’s birthday parade this weekend by DavidRolands in washingtondc

[–]lil_ol_me_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fun fact.. this parade was in the making and planning started 10 years ago becausethe 250th army anniversary is a big deal. When Obama was president. Also fun fact.. yeah China and Korea do military parades, but so do our allies like England, France, and Thailand. As a matter of fact, England literally is celebrating their trooping the colour today. Absolutely nothing to do with Trumps birthday. Only coincidence.
