So a rule of thumb is used , one open hand = 1% coverage, when last assessed I was measured as being 1% that included the odd very small spot of scale but mostly dry patches of skin, it has now been over a month since my last injection and I am still in that 1% bracket I think although the Dr expects a return to wide scale coverage around 12 weeks.
Thanks Tom that gives a good indication of where you are at the moment..
Have you struggled with psoriasis for long before the trial and were you usually well covered and did anything else work as well as Talz ?
