My Journey to halt/end my psoriasis

[Sheila]

Well, I am back from holidays and things are going in the right direction. I have lost 33.6 lbs. and still going! I had a phone meeting with my GP (yes the same one I've always had, sadly), and he told me my A1C's have dropped from 9.8 to 5.7.  So I went from High, to the mid range of normal. Exciting news to be sure.  As for my psoriasis? I am continuing treatment with Enstilar. Doc told me to continue using it and if we encounter any side effects, we would deal with it then. So far, I have not had any significant mood swings, no thinning skin, or diminishing of efficacy. I am doing it, because I have had life now, with fairly clear skin and I dread going back to red, scaly skin with bleeding arms and wrists and a face that bears the redness and scaling. Call me vain, but I don't want to see or feel that way again. I know it's a shallow point of view, but it's been a while since I have seen my face without psoriasis on it; years in fact.

Anyways, as always, I invite feedback and thoughts. Doesn't matter if they are positive comments or not. Speak your mind. I know there are people here who have been in my shoes and had the same feelings, so I welcome whatever feedback that comes my way. I will learn from them all.

Cheers,
