Hi Camille,
A while ago I was having some gastrointestinal issues. I was talking to a gastroenterologist about it-since there is some association between GI issues and PsA. He suggested I cut milk and dairy for a couple weeks to see if it improves. What do you know? The issues went away! His diagnosis was lactose intolerance.

My GI issues have largely gone away. I use oat milk, which I actually really like.
Thank you for that information
