You carry on and grumble Brighteyes, if it helps then Psoriasis Club is doing it's job.
We all feel so frustrated when we can't come up with a solution, but knowing we are helping makes everyone feel good.
I tried sleeping pills from my GP for the first time ever this week, and I've had the best sleep for the past couple of months. So if you don't have them, it maybe worth giving it a try and as long as it's not a long-term solution a few hours of good kip go a long way.
I don't know about what is available to you in the UK, but as they offered a commode there may be other things that could be available too so just ask your Nurse she will know.
@Caroline a Commode is a chair with a place for a pot underneath it that you can use as a temporary toilet when moving is difficult, once used the pot can be emptied down the toilet and cleaned ready for next use. Some people have a stigma about them and they are sometimes looked at as something fumy, but when one is put in the position of having to use one they suddenly become something good.
In fact some old ones are collected as pieces of antique furniture, just don't put you books in them though as they will fall on the floor.
