I guess I'll cross that road when I get to it.
Kat - What side effects do you have from Acetretin? Did you have a flare up at the start of the regime?
Caroline - What would I need to do to see a dermatologist in the Netherlands and get treated? Would I need particular health insurance? Is Psorinovo expensive without insurance?
I thought I should give a little background about myself. I'm 39 and have always ate healthily and exercised regularly then last October I had a flare up of Guttate Psoriasis, first time. No one else in my family has it so it's not hereditary. I did have some insect bites from my holiday weeks previous which did not seem to get better, also I had a slight sore throat but I don't think it was a strep throat infection. My derm thinks those were my triggers. I've been getting UVB treatment and have 8 sessions left and then it may be onto Acetretin and no I'm here.
I've cut out nightshades, gluten and processed sugar as much as I can. I take high dose vitamin D3/K2, Magnesium, Zinc and Selenium and fish oils. I've been jucing and incorporate a couple of glasses of geen juice a day. But generally I've always ate healthily and cooked most of meals, processed meals now and then. I kind of feel really angry that it's happened to me even though I've kept myself really fit and healthy all these years, I've also stopped drinking not that I drank much before last October anyways and have never smoked ever. Just sheer bad luck I guess like the rest of us.
