yeah....it was hard though. I really had to make a conscious decision not to say a word. So yes, I am proud of myself for that one.

So....My elbows and knees are still a bit scaly and shedding skin, but nowhere NEAR what they used to. If you ask me, it's just one more reason why I need to go to something like methyltrexate. It's just nice that I am not leaving huge amounts of dead skin on everything, everywhere I go. So that, my friends is a victory, thus far. And on a side bar, I have lost 27 pounds. 4.3 pounds in the last week alone. Who's a happy camper? I AM!!! Big Grin

Cheers,

Wintrman

Great news wintrman I'm pleased the enstilar is working miracles for you and you are delighted with the progress, but as you say you will probably need the methotrexate to assist in full clearance. Such good news that you are getting positive responses from your work colleagues. I'm sure they don't appreciate the struggle we have as sufferers .
Also great that you are losing weight. I'm not sure how much you weigh but losing 27lb is amazing. well done

Hi KatT,

Oddly enough, losing the weight was easy. After I kicked the gluten habit and getting a huge helping hand from Ozempic ( a diabetic drug), I have now lost 30 lbs. You see, Ozempic KILLS your appetite. Drink 8 0z. of water and you feel like you have just eaten a 12 oz. steak and a baked potato. So no problem. Trouble is I have to force myself to eat so my blood sugars don't bottom out. It's a cross I am willing to bear however.

Cheers!

Wintrman
