What has having psoriasis been like for you?!


Question: I've had psoriasis for 29 years now.
Scalp, ears, armpits, elbows, chest.
It sucks.

Medications work, but it is an ongoing battle.
Psoriasis will stop in some areas for a while and
flare up in other areas. Seldom are there periods of time where you are psoriasis free for more that a few months.

For me, Clobex and the base component Clobetasol Propionate work best.

I've tried Embrel - it works - its very expensive, but it lowered my resistance to fight infections, so I had to discontinue the treatment.

Fortunately, I have a girlfriend that can deal with it.

Psoriasis is one of those chronic diseases, It's with you for life.

It hasn't been to bad for me, but then again, I don't have psoriasis.

Don't have psoriasis but you might want to take flaxseed oil for it

Knowing what triggers it.
It's fungal related. I can eat popcorn and be in torment for days. This is all a result of "You are what you eat".
Do a cleanse. Get the yeast/fungus out. This can be cured !!!!!
You can e-mail me for the information.

I dont have it, but I DO have eczema which is close. Its not so bad for me cuz Im treating it and everything but Ive had it almost all my life! Ugh! It goes away, then flares up, then goes away, reapeat, bwahhh.
