Hi and to the forum, Sorry there was no one here this morning when you first posted it takes a lot of courage to put in writing your troubles. But I can assure you that you have come to a very friendly caring forum, with people that can relate to your embarrassment and often self loathing. There is usually some one not to far away to respond
I am really sorry to hear about your husband it sounds as if you have been to hell and back, cancer is a terrible disease and whilst it must be awful for you both, I think people forget that you are going through his pain with him, and need support, over here we have Macmillan Nurses for these times with cancer who support both the sufferer and the carer. I hope you have similar support systems in the U.S
I'm glad you are getting some relief from the psoriasis from your baking soda baths, a lot of people on here swear by them, but do use loads of moisturiser.
Have you had time to see a dermatologist for you!!! They can offer a whole bag of tricks one of which will work for you. I know this is not a good time to be thinking of you, but you really need to be getting it under control.
Keep coming back and let us know what is happening and whatever you do, don't tear your hair out
