Hi Angela,

Yes, some people do get Psoriatic Arthritis. Some of the warning signs are joint pain and stiffness which is sometimes worse in the morning or after periods of inactivity & nail changes (pitting/ridging, lifting from nail bed). Definitely worth getting checked out by your GP who may refer you to a rheumatologist.
