Kim Kardashian has been in the spotlight in the latest season of Keeping Up with the Kardashians thanks to the mysterious symptoms that are usually a sign of lupus . However in the latest episode of KUWTK, Kim revealed that luckily there is no lupus or rheumatoid arthritis.
Kim's doctor found that she has psoriatic arthritis because psoriasis comes and goes. She was relieved to say "I can manage the pain". "Autoimmune diseases are really scary," she said. "You always have in your head the fear that something bad can happen to them."
Psoriatic arthritis is a type of arthritis (inflammation of the joints) that comes accompanied by inflammation of the skin (psoriasis).
Lupus is an autoimmune disease that causes inflammation in tissues and organs. The disease is difficult to diagnose because the symptoms - joint pain, fever, fatigue, urticaria - are common and can be explained in many ways. Symptoms also vary from patient to patient. Lupus has no cure but is treated effectively.
Rheumatoid arthritis is also an autoimmune disease that occurs when the immune system involuntarily attacks body tissue.
