Heart condition and Psoriatic Arthritis
Posted Tue 6 Jan 2026 10.27 by Sazzy
Can anyone please tell me whether there is a link between having a mild to moderate heart condition and psoriatic arthritis? I had an echocardiogram in December which revealed an enlarged heart and leaky valve and reduced blood pumping rate. I am also on blood pressure tablets and now a statin. Is there likely to be a connection between these two conditions please?

Sorry l don't know about a link but I'm the same with PsA and same heart results and medication - along with fatty liver that I only knew about after signing up for a research study. All can apparently be rareish side effects from Methotrexate possibly? Which I've now stopped but was on for 5+ years.
