Pitting

Started looking for what might cause the pitting on Katee's nails, since psoriasis and arthritis have been ruled out. Stumbled across this from the University Health Systems of Eastern Carolina Health Library: minor pitting may be normal. Oh! Since it's just her ring fingers that are doing it maybe it's normal.

However HealthCentral.com says malnutrition of any sort can affect the appearance of the nails. So now I'm thinking that's it. I know we need to work on our diets and make better food choices.

We have made some better choices by cutting down on trips to fast food places. Katee's switched from white bread to whole wheat. And we're drinking more water and tea and trying to lessen the number of sodas. (Kathryn)


About the photo: Katee says no to pancakes. It was a late night trip to IHOP and Katee decided to just drink water.
