My Journey to halt/end my psoriasis

[Sheila]

Any other comorbidities that I should be aware of?

I would say No. Wait until you have a problem then check, if not you could end up thinking you have all sorts of things wrong.



This old thread mentions some: Psoriasis associated with a variety of medical comorbidities

If you put "comorbidities" in the Search you will find more. *You may need to play with the spelling "co morbidities" "comorbid" etc.

Have fun, but I would still wait and see.

Hi Fred,

I hear ya with the sit and wait. I sometimes wonder if I am psychosomatic myself.  Truth is though, with all the issues I have going on right now (PTSD, Diabetes, Psoriasis, Psoriatic Arthritis) I, or any doctor would be hard pressed to say one symptom or another is directly attributed to one condition or the other. I just want to be prepared for any other issues that may arise in the future. I am a prime target for many conditions associated with all my diagnoses. Well.....no more. I am done sitting by and letting things happen. No more letting others take control of my health, my destiny. It's time I took care of myself and fully insert myself into the decisions concerning my health. I am angry. I am terrified. I am a hot mess. I have to sort this out and make a concrete plan with my GP, Psychologist, Psychiatrist and any other person that gets dragged into the mess I call a life. Sadly, the stress of dealing with all of this profoundly affected my PTSD. I am having more flashbacks and they are debilitating all on their own. They are even happening at work! Fortunately, I work in a situation where I can hide what has happened. How long I can hide it, I don't know. But dammit! I am gonna fight, learn, take charge and put things into action, if it kills me!!!

Sorry to have dumped on ya, Fred. But thanks for listening. 

Cheers,
Wintrman
