My Journey to halt/end my psoriasis

[Sheila]

Well, I got my booster. Life is so good as I am watching my arms reduce so much in inflammation! I am soooo glad to have gotten the chance to take Skyrizi! I am NOT suffering any of the side effects that the AbbVie nurse said I would probably get, so I am super thrilled! The scaling on my body is almost at zero. There is still significant redness, but the scaling is gonerz! Don't get me wrong, because there are areas where there is NO redness OR scaling, like my knees, my lower legs, my back, shoulders and my private parts. My front torso, arms, a little on the front top part of my legs, face and head. Having said that, they have decreased significantly!

Finally, my dream is coming true in dramatic fashion. Skyrizi is giving me freedom from my psoriasis. Itching is almost non existent now. No piles of dead skin left behind where ever I sit. No constant vacuuming or cleaning. I am living a truly wonderful moment in my life because of my relief from psoriasis and my new found happiness with my transition.

I mean, as I read back from a year ago, the feelings about psoriasis and my life were dismal at best, and tortured at worst. What a difference a year can make in your life! It's a year I am so glad I was around to experience, especially since I reflect upon the 4 failed suicide attempts in my life. So thankful God didn't call me home. He had a plan for me and this is just the start to a new beginning!
