Im glad you are keeping an open mind Connor on the possibility of other treatments, and yes it's better to discuss matters with a dermatologist in a friendly manner, I'm sure it will get better results for you.

Good to hear about the plus side of psoriasis getting you fit , for me I don't have the will power and am letting my Fumaderm keep me clear.
How I wish there were places like this years ago when I was in a desperate state with psoriasis feeling very alone with no one to turn to .....the best thing with having psoriasis for me is this site as it gives us a chance to learn more about the disease so when we do see the dermatologist instead of believing him when he tells you to try this new cream, you can say with authority " but I know there are better treatments that will block the cells that are affecting my skin." He is more likely to prescribe something useful if you have a reasoned arguement.... But I still doubt it will be the one you want..

If you are able to get Fumaderm ( I'm not trying to put you off ) but there can be some unpleasant side effects. Which do put a lot of people off but they are short lived ( or they were for me ) and they do diminish after time

And as Fred says do start a thread to relate your journey, it will prove helpful to you, and probably others as well

Cheers mate,  I'll have to look into the side effects.. What are the major ones?  Calm and steady all the way from here on out!  My initial breakout happened after a very bad breakup.  I was in bits for months and didn't eat properly sleep properly and stressed right out.  Allot of people say  stress brings this on. Does anyone else follow this theory?
