I have psoriatic arthritis and suffer chroinc fatigue. can you suggest additional medication to ask my gp for in addition to methotrexate?

See details: If your disease is poorly controlled you need to be on a biologic agent in addition to the methotrexate. You need to be under the direct care of a rheumatologist even in the National Health System. Finally, stop smoking as this makes the psoriatic arthritis much worse.
