[Quest4Cure]

Welcome...

I used to feel the way u do . Nothing worked on my Psoriasis

A psoriasis specialist, there r so many new drugs to try I'm sure there would be something to help u. UVB o UVA light therapy, Excimer laser.

vit-D with Vit - k helps me thru the long winters.

A lot of biologicals have helped & so many new creams, foams and oils.

I use occlusion.. Keep my P. In check for many years.


Good Luck and I hope u find a qualified Psoriasis derm . Hope to hear more from u soon!

Hi ya'll.
Well day 8 and if anything skin is drier and scalier than before. Using lots of moisturiser. No tummy symptoms as yet so that's a good thing. Flushing isn't a problem either. Keep taking the pills and hope for the best

Good to hear from you Audrey.
Keep on going, the drug is a slow burner, so it will take some time before the results will become visible.
You know it, as soon as you see changes, stop the building up, and stay on that dose for a while.

We also hope for the best for you.

Cheers,
Caroline

Yes as Caroline says it is early yet in the treatment. You will soon be able to see results ... I'm very hopeful for you
Try using coconut oil as a moisturiser it soaks in well and is not to messy.
Keep the faith you are getting there

Thanks guys. No I'm not expecting big changes yet was really just saying that my skin seemed drier. But that's okay I've got plenty of moisturiser lol.
