Happy I found you

[Gilly]

Hi, my name is Gilly and I live in Australia.  I'm looking forward to making some friends on here, trying some new treatments and sharing ideas. For 3 years I have seriously thought about poking myself in the eye with a pointy stick    just to take my mind off my skin but here I am all body accessories still intact joining a forum hoping to find "my cure"

Welcome Gilly!

I was happy to find this place as well. Lots of good information and a great bunch of people. There's lots of good conversations here, regarding treatments, ideas, and just general chat at times.

Hello Gilly,

Welcome to the psoriasisclub forum.  

Lots of stuff to read and discuss over here.

Nice to see another antipode on the board, for my idea you are walking upside down  
From this you can read that there is someone else from Australia is on the board, our own local forum physician. We will introduce him later to you, or maybe he will do that himself.

It is quite possible that you will find amongst the large possibilities over here a possible treatment that can help you forward again.

Do feel at home, we are all nice people over here. There are even a few sensible ones on the forum

Caroline.

Thank you all so much for a very warm welcome,Jim Kat & Caroline.... Phew!  I think I'm onto a winner and have won the door prize finding you all!
I work full time in Aged Care and have also cornered the market in being a bad sleeper so popping in here when the top side ( thanks Caroline   ) of the world is awake there's a good chance of me joining you with a hot Milo.  I feel a little warm and fuzzy about the US, on one of my trips there I discovered I had contact dermatitis, by a Registered Nurse/Doctor in a pharmacy in Las Vegas    and the UK is next on my list for a holiday to meet my parents families.  So thank you and I hope I can also be a giver on the forums, I have trialled/tested/used/rubbed/washed/peeled and eaten many things looking for an improvement, (some I'm still trying to forget about
I'm open to suggestions and hope to make lots of new friends. Gilly

The good part about message boards is that the time difference doesn't overly matter. I may miss catching people online at times, but the posts are still sitting here waiting to be read.

Hello Gilly   to Psoriasis Club.

We're glad you found us too, the more the  merrier. You certainly can be a giver to the forum and your input could be of help to to others, if you are a bad sleeper you may be interested in the Off Topic board there is usually something going on there.

Welcome to the forum, it's great on here as 90% of the inmates are half crazy ,the other 10% are crazy and that's GB . We all know what P is like and can share sympathy with each other as we are all speaking from experience . I am sure that you will be able to get loads of info on here and if you want to know anything just shout as Fred knows more about P and PsA than most of the consultants I have came across.
