Hello I'm new

[Susie Thompson]

Hello everybody. I'm 65 and I live on the West Coast of Scotland. I work with fine porcelain clay sculpture. It's just about a year since I was diagnosed with palmoplantar pustulosis (PPP). The skin on the soles of my feet broke out first, followed by my hands, after a prolonged period of severe stress resulting from personal and family problems. I'm just starting counselling to help me to find a way forwards. I have a very supportive husband, and our Labrador dog called Sam does a pretty good job too. My GP has been very good through all this, as well as have all the folks at Crosshouse Hospital.

So far I have been treated with a multitude of creams and potions and bandages. I have not long finished 20 PUVA sessions. My hands are a lot better, but my feet are an ongoing problem. That about sums it up, but I'm bound to have forgotten something!

Hello Susie, nice intro

Good to know you have support from your husband and Sam. Dogs are very good at taking your mind off things and keeping you calm, well most of the time.

Don't hesitate to shout out here, you will find a friendly bunch of people always ready to offer support.

Regards.

Fred.
