My husband has psoriatic arthritis, gout and migraines. He suffers almost all the time. He takes a suite of drugs for the arthritis which treat some symptoms and cause others.

We need better information on drug interations

We need to see someone who specializes in diagnosis

We need something he can use for pain that doesn't cloud his mind - he is a scientist

Got any ideas?

ACCEPTED

Your husband may be helped by the Rheumatology or Orthopedic Department of a Clinic, like Mayo or the Cleveland Clinic or of a large teaching hospital. Ask your doctor for a referral, or use Best Doctors (www.bestdoctors.com) to find a specialist.

Thanks, we've tried Mass General and Mayo in Phoenix. I didn't expect you could help either. Sometimes I just feel desperate.

He is brilliant.
