Well firstly I don't think I spelt the name right lol
anyways...
some time ago (about 7yrs ago) pretty much most of my psoriasis cleared.
At that point in my life, I left my perents home, I started drinking alcohol most nights, I was stuck in a tiny room with my ex smoking LOTS of weed and his mates also, I was smoking fags like no tomorrow, I didn't give a second thought as to what I was eating and I can assure you apart from the odd orange juice it was all pretty much junk and sugar!!!
I left him...moved back home and yup psoriasis came back...
I moved out of home 2 years ago, at that point I stoppped my methotrexate and BAM my worst flare ever, wearing clothes (if I managed to dress myself) were painful :(
so I started cyclosprin, was on that for a year I stopped it in october and in septemember I started eating better and have also given up smoking for 2 months my lower lefs are just psoriasis, never had so much. My only saving grace is that it isn't thick at all!
Also I had P when I was 4yrs old and when in my teens just had it on my elbows.........I only ever ate sweets, like a whole bag of haribo for breakfast most days!!!! and my folks smoked all the time inside.
so if pagano is right surely I should be clearing now and should of had psoriasis worse than I do now in the times of my life that my lifestyle and diet were so bad!!!
My other issue is that the 7 yrs ago.....I had my 2nd lot of UVB previous and my psoriasis was comming back bad I was trying all sorts, I called the derm for an appointment and they said they would call me back Weeks had gone by with no call, so I just thought F'em they not helping. I still had loads of emotional stuff and was always thinking of killing myself.
but about a year or 2 after that point it started to clear by itself!!
Part of me can't help but feel maybe I should just grin and bare what my skin throws at me and not have UVB or any meds and see what happens!!
just thought I would share some of what I've been through!!
(also the whole nightshade thing.....I no thats it's all related to the deadly night shade etc....BUT if you think about it, if you ate an uncooked kidney bean that can make you really ill but cooked it's fine!!)
