You will find a wealth of information here so have a good look around and ask as many questions as you like, none of us are professionals but we have a wide range of people using different treatments.
If you want to get to know some of our members better I can recommend the [Group Specific] board, you will find a very friendly bunch so just dive on in.
Nothing wrong with your intro and no one will judge you here.
Regards.
Fred.
Hello Fred and thank you so much for the warm welcome. I really appreciate what you have done here with this forum. Not only as a source of information, but the warm and inviting nature of the forum and its members. I really look forward to being active and getting to know the other members and they know me. I hope you have a good day

Welcome to Psoriasisclub.
Thanks for your introduction.
And noo, it was not to much
A first impression is always difficult, so we don’t go for that alone. And remember, your second post is in fact also the first second post.
Enjoy yourself over here.
Cheers,
Caroline.
Thank you Caroline for the inviting welcome I am just confused here. I though the second post was the second first post. Sometimes I find it so confusing like is it the hundredth post, a decade of decade posts or four quarter posts? I guess it doesn't matter, it is all the same no matter which way you slice it up! I hope you have a wonderful day!!!

Here you are among friends that are in the same boat as you and all happy to share their experience with tips on what helps them, and although there aren't any medical professionals here we have a wealth of experience of psoriasis
So enjoy yourself and jump in anywhere here where you will be made welcome . Ask questions if you have any and we will do our best to answer them
I'm glad the creams are clearing you and hope you will read more on here about other treatments that can treat you systemically. If the creams fail as they are designed for short term use ...see here Prescribed Treatments For Psoriasis

Hi Jim!!!! Thank you for great welcome!!! That is something I am looking forward to reading is other's people experiences with psoriasis and sharing my own.
Thank you for the link for other treatments that can help with psoriasis. That is something I need to consider now that I finally have my diagnosis.
Wishing you all the best Jim

Absolutely nothing wrong with your intro, we have all been there and yes it can be difficult to open up, but be rest assured we all know what the script is and no one will ever judge you on here. It's not what we are about.
Non of us are medically trained but have grown to cope with this damned disease and can speak from experience.
What I would strongly recommend if you dont have one is to get a referral to a Dermatologist, GP's in most countries dont have the same call on treatments and you are more likely to get it under control better with a Dermy in tow. I would also be very cautious about using steroid creams such as Enstilar for too long as they can cause damaging thinning of the skin.
If we can be any help, just ask - there is no such thing as a dumb question. We will do our best to help where we can.

Hi JohnB!!!! Thank you for the very warm welcome to the club!!! I really appreciate it!!!
That is something I am going to pursue in the new year is a referral to a Dermatologist. Thank you for the suggestion! Also thank for the warning about Enstilar.
I hope you have a great day JohnB!!!!
