my story so far with psoriasis

[glenda grant]

Hi i'm new to the psoriasis club. Started to develop a rash about a week and a half ago, which started on the palm of my hands and then gradually spread to most other areas of my body. i thought it was excema to begin with as I have suffered with excema on and off for years.

But after making an appointment to see the doctor today he told me that it was guttate psoriasis.

He has given me Dermol cream to apply, oilatum for the bath and antibiotics, I have to take the antibiotics 2 tablets at a time 4 times a day, 8 tablets in total. this seems a lot of tablets, just wanted to know if anyone else who was first diagnosed was given this many tablets to take a day. They are penicillin.

Thank you

You have to watch about the anti-biotics as after awhile you can become resistant to them.Then later on when you really need them they won't work as well.
