Hi all! Well after waiting for what has seemed FOREVER I got to see a Dermatologist. He came in did a quick look(and I do mean quick), and said yes you have Psoriasis, 77% coverage. Gave me scripts for ointment that takes about 45 minutes with the help of hubby to put on all of the spots as I am just covered with them. Cannot afford the scalp oil he prescribed so I called them and got a " crabby phone nurse" who wants me to keep calling the insurance company to find an alternative they can prescribe. Hey wait, isn't that her job? I am doing some investigating myself. I am a handmade soap maker by trade, so I am putting together a tea tree and pine tar soap this week, and maybe try my hand at a salve. I might as well try to treat myself without a bunch of steroids and junk that cost a hundred dollars a tube. Wish me luck!
