Hello Stacey, best advice I could give you would be to dump your doctor as you are not getting treated properly. I would also say forget about the Coal Tar, things have moved on a hell of a lot and that's the sort of thing we used 30 years ago. Also Aqueous cream and antibiotics are not going to help. Have a read of these threads and get yourself a new doctor:

NICE issues new guidance for GPs treating psoriasis
Re the others talking about Fumaderm you don't need to Google it there is plenty of info on here, but I would say slow down. Jim and Caroline do well on it but I'm pretty sure you won't get it, as you will have to start from scratch and Fumaderm is not widely available in the UK.
Dump your current doctor as he is an idiot, have a good read through threads on here, arm yourself with as much info as possible, insist you see a dermatologist who knows what they are doing and get rid of the Coal Tar.
Regards.
Fred.
