| Comments: | Wow I am so glad I found this. I have had P for 2 years now. It took 4 different Dr.s before I found one who knew what I had an treated it effectively. The only problem now is Unitedhealthcare wont cover my dosages of Enbrel as required by my Dr. I need 100 Mg each week. I am in the appeal processes and see no end in site. Enbrel was working after 3 months of the 100 MG a week. Then they denied 100 and only allowe 50MG a week. It has come back full force. I lost my hair and my scalp face and ears are covered. Just wanted to post. I am glad I found this Help Group.

Hi! Everyone, I had Psoriasis for more than 20 years. I remove my red blisters without taking medicine or using UV light treatment. The red blister can return, all I had to do is to eat a type of chocolate. So it not a cure but manage it. My Psoriasis, in the early years, its come and go with medication until medicine lose it effectiveness and my whole body (90%) filled with red blisters getting from bad to worse. I did try many thing but none work. I try to understand my Psoriasis and in the end I came back to basic. Change my life style, reduce stress, mentally and physically, use food to help cool my body, etc…. I wish those who had Psoriasis take good care of your skin and do not damage it, you can recover the original skin and look normal again. From: SW Chua E-mail: swchua2008@yahoo.com.sg |

| Comments: | Hi, I see this is a rarely used site, but I wanted to share with you all... I was diagnosed for many years with psoirasis, then psoriatic arthritis. I had many many treatments, culminating in Enbrel, then Methotrexate- both of which sent me to hospital with septic infections. As it turns out, I have Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma, a rare lymphatic cancer. NOT psoriasis or PA, although it is commonly misdiagnosed as such. The treatments for this cancer are very different than the treatments for psoriasis. This cancer is overlooked by most doctors, as it is considered very rare.
In fact, though, many new cases are being diagnosed in recent years. Discuss this with your doctors, and see if new biopsies can help you! If the doctors are not looking for CTCL, they do not see it in biopsies, it is hard to discern. Be well. Rebecca263 |

| Comments: | I want to congratulate you on the cream that you have formulated. I have had great success in treating my eczema with your product.
This cream has been most effective in treating new outbreaks, clearing them up within three to four days. I have resistant, older lesions (1-2 years old) that are starting to respond with approximately 3-4 weeks of treatment. I have noticed an increase in reddening and itching withing the first few applications,WWW.REGSOR.COM but this subsides rapidly. Thank you very much for allowing me to try this AMAZING product. I have tried expensive cortisone creams, prescription as well as OTC, with little (if any) result." |

| Comments: | I have suffered since I was 19 with psoriasis of the scalp. I have used every steroid on the market:creams, topicals, shampoos, solutions and injections. Kenolog injections worked great but only cleared me for a few weeks. I have had so many over the years my scalp now looks like a golf ball due to the atrophy (VERY deep crater-like formations in my scalp), so watch out!!!! Heres what I use to clear my scalp of flakes and to stop the INTENSE need to pick at my scalp. I apply a generous amount Clobex Lotion to scalp before bed and wrap head in towel. In the morning I use a flea comb (yes the kind for pets)and starting from the crown of my scalp comb towards the front of my scalp. The clobex lotion softens the scaling plaques and the fine tooth comb catches all of the moist flakes. FYI, lock yourself in the bathroom and comb over the sink. The amount of stuff that the comb catches is amazing and totally gross! Then I wash my hair with Salex shampoo. Clearing of the flakes allows the shampoo to work better. For the ears I use protopic Ointment and derma oil. I never wear black because no matter what my scalp is constantly sheading. I would sell my soul for a p cure. Until that time, there is a book for the eager folks who want to try the dietary approach: Eat Right for your blood type by Dr. Peter J.D'Adamo with Catherine Whitney. I have found the correlation between P and the O blood type to be very interesting . I believed I was blood type A for 30 years but since reading this book have found I too am blood type O. I have just started the diet and will update With the results. Wish you all a fabulous recovery!!! |

| Comments: | Has anyone heard of psoriasis clearing up during pregnancy? I have had psoriasis on my scalp for 10years with no real successful treatment. I don't like the idea of using the sun on my scalp because my mom died of Melanoma, so I use a hydrocortisone lotion on my scalp, it doesn't seem to help much anymore. I did notice that when I was pregnant a year ago, my psoriasis pretty much went away. Has anyone else heard of this or had a similar experience. If so would the hormones produced in pregnancy be helpful to the treatment of psoriasis? |

| Comments: | Dear visitors,
July 3 2006 I sent e-mail to Dreambook in which I briefly described our personal experiment with psoriasis. For that time I received some e-mail from patients and decided to answer them in Dreambook. First of all I one more time covinced that we in time stopped to go to clinics and pharmacies. During last 7 years at many sites I read thousands opinions patients of psoriasis about medicine. All the same that was more than 40 years ago, namely the same unscrupulous but legitimate experiments at people. When I read about side effect from majority medicine it makes me feel creepy all over. When in 1977 we cured my wife, we up to 1991 do not cure any people. And only when we convinced that disease do not renew, we attempted another patients. That was two girls 10 and 17 years old. The girl of 10 years old has horrible form plaque psoriasis for 7 years. She said us that she do not remember herself without of psoriasis. The girl of 17 years old has hard form guttate psoriasis for about two years. We cured they bouth and waited some years. When we convinced that disease do not renew, we began annually cure some patients. We took attention that guttate psoriasis cure more easy than plaque form, from 3 to 5 weeks. Plaque form can cure during 6-8 weeks. Scalp form psoriasis as a rule can cure during 2 weeks. But we cure only those patients that meet out demands. Some years ago I desided to apply to numerous international organizations, well-known institutes and officials. I sent e-mail to all national psoriasis associations that I could seek in the site of IFPA. In my e-mail I wrote the same that I wrote to Dreambook. Do you think I received if even one answer? No one answer. During last two years I sent five e-mail to President of IFPA Mr. Lars Ettarp. No one answer. I sent three e-mail to President of EUROPSO Mrs.Valderdur Audunsdottir. No one answer. I sent e-mail to some professors of Karolinska Institute Sweden, but without any answer. It is make impression on me that for all those persons psoriasis of people is absolutely not interesting. In conclusion I wish to say that we ready to transfer composition of our prepatations to serious drag or medicine organizations. That is our ultimate aim but not beginning one. Yours fathfully Peter Neved. |

| Comments: | Hi, I'm the same as everyone else on this page. I have had p since I was in high school and I'm now 47. I have had it on the bottom of my foot yrs. ago. I now have had it on the palm of my hand for so many years I can't remember not having it on it. I also have it all over my body, on my ears, in my ears on my legs, almost no place is spared. I also have tried several treatments, which none work. I tan in the summer mostly so I can wear shorts. I tried the laser treatments on my hand about 1 1/2 yrs. that didn't work either. I have received Kenalog shots which do work but are very bad for you. Now my dermatologist wants me to take Enbrel shots. My insurance co. has finally approved it, but I'm quite scarred to do them since it does things to your immune system. Has anyone taken Enbrel shots?

| Comments: | Hey everyone. ive never talked bout my P to anyone b4 besides my mom, my lovers, and my best friend so this is kind of new to me. i cant even believe that so many ppl are suffering the same way i am. its actually a sort of relief. sorry... well. ive had P for about 9 years now, im 22. my mother has it so i knew there was always a chance id get it. she has four children but im the only one who inherited it. boo! ive gone to all kinds of dermatologists and used all sorts of creams and such and spent all kinds of money and had all kinds of reactions and non-reactions and just got to a point where i was fed up and wrote off all kinds of medications. but as i get older my P gets worse so i started looking again. i was told about a doctor of chinese herbal medicine from queens, ny. im from new jersey and it takes about an hour to get where she is and she charges and arm and a leg, seriously its like 400-500$ for 3 weeks of treatment but her medicine is miraculous. in just three days my sin cleared up and i have severe P. ive been going to her since. i go on and off because shes so damn expensive but it really works. one day hopefully ill make enuff money to continue goin regularly. the medicine consists of all natural tea, which i drink twice a day, pills, which i take twice a day, and cream which, i apply twice a day. plus everytime i visit i get accupuncture. it does take sum dicipline to remember to do everything and to make time for it all but its worth it guys. if u can find a doctor of chinese traditional medicine look into it. keep ur heads up. |

| Comments: | This web site is very beneficial to psoriasis sufferers. I come to this site often. I suffer with psoriasis and have so for 11 months. I am sure there are others with worsened conditions than mine but this disease has just about gotten the best of me. I am currently on Enbrel sure clicks biweekly but just last week developed a sore throat and what a severe sore throat it was. I ask for your prayer in my journey with disease. I would never wish this on anyone. It is hard to keep your head up with you feel so bad. Thanks for listening. |

| Comments: | I am 39 and have had P for only 10mths. I have badly in my hands and one toe and a spot in my ear & elbows. I also have pitted nails.
DOES ANY ONE KNOW WHAT P THIS IS? TO STACEY your nails sound like mine. I have just brought a UV gel light for setting acrylic nails. When I am in the sun & sea they seem to get better. Other then that my nails are mostly bad, break out into exploding sores one after another and leaves cracking thick skin that I try to peel away. This also happens under the nail as well which I cut back and clean or it just gets bigger and I loss more nail(daily routine). My nail bed are now half the size and one is completely gone.. due to doctors treating it as fungi. I have given up smoking today and with your support I am going to try a different diet. I thought once you have one p you don't get another? I thought nail P was different to body P... I read this somewhere is this true? I love this site, it really helps. I TELL MY 10 YEAR OLD SON ABOUT EVERYONE ON THIS SITE AND HE SAID TO ME WHICH I JUST LOVE. "PEOPLE THINK THEY ARE UGLY WITH P BUT THEY ARE NOT THEY ARE JUST UNFORTUNATE WITH P" PS. It also sounds like things work for some but not others, we are all so such individuals which is unfortunate, but looks like we are to keep trying to find the right treament or diet to suit ones self.

| Comments: | Had P for 10 years now. The last couple of years had been the worst. I had large patches over my body. I was recently prescribed dithranol 0.1% cream. It has helped a great deal and I currently only have a few spots around my body instead of patches. I expect they will come back, but I feel a lot better as the patches have stayed away for a couple of months now. I am going on a summer holiday soon and feel confident to wear shorts and I hope the sun will clear it up even more. Good luck everyone. |

| Comments: | Hi, its been years since I have stopped by the dreambook, this is a wonderful place to start and be able to get in touch with other psoriasis people. A suggestion is to visit the psoriasis support group too. http.//groups.msn.com/Psoriasis Support. Many write there daily with ideas that have worked for them, and have not worked since each of us are different. All ages are welcome. They have a chat room also for anyone to use, general message boards ect. They even have a diet person you can ask questions. From time to time they also have chats with professional people that you may join in. It is posted on the site when etc. There is also National psoriasis foundation you can check out too. Glad to see the awareness and new sites one can visit and or join. Glad to see commercials on tv about psoriasis. I know some people will never quote get it in their minds that we are not going to give them something if they talk to us etc. Don't have that happen as often now. Anyway, I know how alone one can feel, so thought I would give some information where else to go, that might help someone out too, hope its ok. I started out with dreambook and glad its here, sure has opened doors. Take care all, Marty |

I've had Psoriasis for about 10 years now. It started as small "bumps" on my elbows. Now it has progresses to large patches on my elbows/arms, knees, in my ears, back of my legs, and keeps on a commin. I've tried most all the various ointments prescribed, with limited results. Give me a hand, I need some advice. Nothing seems to work and it just keeps spreading. |

| Comments: | Thank you for your beautiful Dreambook.
I wish to write my experience at psoriasis. First time I new what is psoriasis was in very distance passed 1961 when I met my future wife. She had pustular psoriasis for 25 years, from 1952 to 1977. As all patients now we in our time seek medicine the same way,in clinics and pharmacies. As for as the affected places might be hide under dress, the life was endurable. But after she born our first child in 1966 her skin literally covered by huge spots from scalp to feet. Those was very difficult time for us, the time of full despair. Nothing help, but immune made worse. Remained only one hope - at ourselves. We began seek medicine ourselves and it took us more than 10 years. But result of our work is that she live from 1977 without psoriasis. From those time disease never renew! All the best Peter Neved. |

| Comments: | Hello everyone, I used to follow this site a lot more than I do now. In fact, I havent been back for about 8 months now because my psoriasis is completely cleared and I really have forgotten I ever had it. BUt I can assure you I suffered just like all of you have and are suffering right now. P covered 95 percent of my body. My hair was so bad my stylist would refuse to cut my hair. I could only wear long sleeve shirts and pants even in the hot california weather. My heart goes out to all of you. 8 months ago, after years and years of horrible treatments such as PUVA light, tablets such as methotrexate, and spending thousands of dollars on herbal remedies which only got me sicker (I dropped about 20 pounds), my doctor put me on ENBREL. Im not saying it is a drug for everyone. A lot of people who prefer the herbal way believe ENBREL is a horrbile drug and that it ruins the body. But I believe it has been a true blessing for me as it has completely cleared ALL of my psoriasis. No more bleeding, tearing, or itching of the skin at all. It is a true miracle, and I am so glad to have my life back. Please feel free to email me. |

| Comments: | Hello everyone,
I don't think there is any drug in this world could cure P, or even help relief it. The problem is, the more drug you take, the worse is our immune system. Please read the book 'Healing Psoriasis - The natural Alternative' by Dr. John O.A. Pagano . I followed the drug fee approach in the book 2 years ago, my P went away for several months. But to be frank, the approaches mentioned in the book are very painful approaches. I lost 20 lbs in 2 months because of the change of diet. But anyway, it helps relief my P. I know for sure if I follow the approaches like bible, my P will go away. Is just I know I can control it take I am not very keen. Everyone, please take your time to read this book, I am sure you will find a new life |

| Comments: | give me a break, u no whats funny, all u guys assume I'm so rich guy, or con artist, that I just got lucky in finding out what I know (therefore don't deserve to be paid for it) or that I'm well off, and expect me to give what I know out for free and do the opposite of what is normal, do u ask for a store to give u the food first then to pay them?
IM NEAR HOMELESS, I WORKED REALLY DAMN HARD TO LEARN WHAT I KNOW. I haven't had a job for about 3 years because my arches are too high and I'm always exhausted nearly. I often get migraines. I'm am just as bad off as many people in the world if not worse. I got ripped off of my bike and lost $125 on it because the guy never paid me for it. I also spent those years writing great books which made no money no thanks to guys like that and people like you making assumptions about me. Oh and I even gave my address out to one guy who said he'd pay me, did he ever pay? NOPE. So who cares about you people, just go rot like you want me to do. You deserve it for making assumptions about me and slandering me. And my bad for offering you guys a cure, oh how shameful of me, and to charge you less than what the medical industry charges you. Haha, that makes sense, so you'd rather go to the guys who give you harmful drugs and got you psoriasis in the first place. That really makes sense doesn't it? But you obviously love suffering, so suffer then and leave me alone with my cure. Goodbye jerks |

| Comments: | Hi everyone, I'm 21 and have had p since i was 7. i know how everyone is feeling. no one wants this. everyday i pray to God that when i wake up in the morning it will all go, but of course it doesnt. i cant dress like anyone else, but i dont really mind that bit, what i do mind is i dont have the clear skin like everyone else. apart from having this, i dont have any other skin problems, not even acne. my face is rather clear which is great cos people cant guess that anywhere else on my body its all red and gross.
there had been a point in my life when i was so down and what i did was cry and cry but it just went from bad to worse, you know it helps it to grow even faster when you're stressed up. i'm living abroad, and where i come from (its malaysia by the way) its all nice and sunny, but i still had it but not too bad, i still can control it, but when i came to the uk, it has become much worse cos there's lack of sunshine and humidity. my skin flakes more easily and i always have to keep it mosturised, if not it'll be very painful to even stretch out. i have to say this, however hard i try to live a normal life, i cant cos the fact is i'm not normal. no-one understands this unless ure having it, not even ur doctor, or ur parents, however hard they try to say that they do. i'm so fed up with life. i believe i can do so many other things if i dont have this. |

I am still taking the herbal medication but at half dosage only. My life has returned to normalcy and I am able to wear shorts when I go for my morning runs. I haven't had a relapse. I am planning to take part in the marathon at the end of this year and I am training for it now. All I can say is dont give up on yourself and life. Take care. |

| Comments: | I can feel everyone PAIN.I have had signs of p.. since 1998 and after having my children it has gotten so bad that it is hard to get off of a chair or even drive a car due to the pain and tearing of skin. My husband also gets upset about the skin in the bed or on the floor just from walking around. I don't think they can truley understand what it is like because the do not live with it on the body. I am looking for any RELIEF for this. Good luck to everyone, I truley can feel your pain. |

| Comments: | Hi everyone. Reading all these have brought tears to my eyes. I have been suffering from P for years and have tried several things. The bad thing is what works best for me is salt water and sunshine but I do not live near the ocean. another thing that works (when I actually take the time to do it) is a coal tar ointment. I hate using it though because its greasy and smells horrible. I recently joined a tanning place and hopefully will take place of the sun for me. I have been under a lot of stress latetly and that is probably why it is gotten so bad that it hurts to walk, it feels like my skin is splitting. My husband gets upset because every morning there are flakes all in the bed and it grosses him out so we rarely sleep together. I pretty much cry because I have tried so many different things and some things dont want to try because of stories I've heard. So now I am willing to risk skin cancer at at tanning salon just to be rid of this ugliness. |

I am a hairdresser and a massagetherapst. I work very closely with the public. I mostly have only had p on my scalp, and in my ears, but recently developed on my lips. It has been the worst!! If anyone knows of anything safe to use on your lips for some kind of relief I would really appreciate it.Thanks Again! |

| Comments: | Several in my family are sufferers and several have found great releif and complete alleviation from taking flax seed oil religiously. Be patient regularly takes 6 mo for relief. I think my problem was worsened by taking tylenol regularly as a child. I know it didn't help the function of my liver anyway. Good luck to all psoriasis sufferers! |

we want to strengthen his immune system, not mess it up more with "md.'s" scripts!! My son went through repetitive ear infections, he was given antibiotics all the time while growing up. I believe this messed his immune system up. Thank You for caring enough to let people like us share all that has gave them relief. I pray everynight that we can find the cure for everyone in pain. |

| Comments: | hi all
ive had p for about 25 years and myself work very closely with the public i am an holistic therapist here in the uk so i have direct contact with others there are a number of essential oils i woulod recommend for p Immortel and yarrow together seen to have an effect i agree about diet also avoiding alcohol and smoking as p is a fault in the immune system. A daily newspaper ran an article the other day an anti infamatory drug called infliximab has had an 86% success rate in trials on p it is usually used for rhumatoid artritis, i know this is not a natural way of treating p but it may offer some hope to chronic sufferers. I have learnt to live with my p I take flaxseed oil and hemp seed oil everyday internally give it time to work about 2 months dont give up hope and learn to feel positive about yourself please feel free to send me e-mails about our condition geraldine |

| Comments: | I wanted to come back and say I know how everyone that I have read and found on this site is feeling. I have had "P" for 20 years, I have severe "P" and also Psoratic Arthritis that goes on with it, I suffer from both. I work with the public and have for 27 years, Yes, people can make the most AWFUL statements. It covers over 75% of my body. I have tried everything, but the only one thing that did help me was EMBREL.BUT< I am from TN., and here the governor took 300,000 people off the state insurance, so I lost mine, even tho I paid just like everyone else.
I am for sure uninsurabe, but when this happened, I lost the EMBREL. If anyone has checked lately, it cost $1500.00 a month, and no one can afford that. It had cleared up so much that for the first time in years I WORE SHORTS. Now I am back where I started.....COVERED! HATEING MYSELF! CRYING BECAUSE OF THE WAY I LOOK! DIVORCED AND THINKING WHO WOULD WANT ME! I am only 43, and you know the Good Lord above, shows me everyday there is people a whole lot worse, and I feel guilty when I see them, but what about me??????????????????? |

| Comments: | I've had P for 7 yrs.I used steroid/cortisoid creams til my skin was so thin I could see my veins through it.And it tore real easy. I started Methodrexate 7 months ago and it seemed to help real fast, but now, my immunity is so low.I also got some P under some of my toenails that won't clear up. I did use some of the creams on them that helped but not anymore. The Methodrexate helped so much for my scalp which was ugly and painful.The thing that I wonder about is now that the metho.. works, will the scars ever go away? It takes so long just to heal from small injurys and I bruise so easy and takes so long for that to clear also.
How long can I use Methodrexate safely? Does it affect your vision? mine seem to be out of focus when I take my meds and also bad headaches.It is worth relief from the constant itching,bleeding and pain I was in before.Did anyone noticed any swelling around your face and neck? What about swelling in your joints? I have an appt in 3 days and will update whatever I find relates , but any info will be appreciated. |

I can really sympathise with all of you. Ive had P since I was just 8 years old, and I am covered from my scalp to my knees. I hate the staring and the name calling, along with the rude comments I recieve. Not to mention the problem I have at work with it. I work in the food service industry thats what I went to college for. Some companys including the one Im with now make it hard to work with all the extra stuff they make me wear.They dont want any scales falling into food from my face or ears so I have to wear a mask, and its allready hot in there. That deffinatly dosent help the name calling eathier.Im sick and tired of the emotional pain with this, I cant wait untill my ins begins so I can get somthing done with this. |

| Comments: | I start enbrel Monday. People say there are bad side effects but at this point I think the chance of dying is worth it. Without this drug Id probably end up killing myself anyways. I have tried everything and nothing had worked. Psoriasis is horrible and I empathize with all of you who have it. Lately I was on cyclosporine but while on it my p actually got worse and i developed scle (subacute form of lupus) on my skin and joints. I wouldnt wish this on anyone. It is absolutely horrible to be in pain and be bleeding all over everything you touch. God bless all of you who suffer with p and still go through life everyday, sometimes it feels like you're the only one. I know I have never met another teenager with it. |

| Comments: | Hello. I have written before thinking that other drugs have worked because I really thought they did. But after a while the drugs failed. Methotrexate did not work for me, and after being on cyclosporine for 3 months, my psoriasis has become worse and a disease called scle (a type of subacute lupus) has formed on my skin and joints which is even more awful and painful. I feel for everyone who suffers with psoriasis, as I have that and scle everywhere on my body. I am only 18 and would love more than anything to just wear shorts for once, especially during the summer time. I start enbrel on Monday. People have called it the wonder drug, and I hope it lives up to its reputation. At this point, I am willing to take it even with side effects. Its funny how someone will go to any length to get relief. If anyone knows what options there are if enbrel fails i would really appreciate if you could email me and tell me. Thanks a lot

| Comments: | I have been reading on this website this morning for the first time. I have had the dreaded p-word, surprising how many people don't even want to write it, for about 30 years. Currently I am having a terrible time getting the ugly spots on my lower legs under control. The timing couldn't be any better since it's summer time and I refuse to wear shorts or cropped pants, w hich I love, because of this ugly condidtion. Sometimes, this morning for example, I get so depressed I just want to sit and cry and cry. Maybe I am just too vain, but as a child and young adult, I always had the most beautiful skin you could imagine, so this is especially hard for me. Anyway, when I get really down I try to remind myself of all the positive things I have to be thankful for, but sometimes at my lowest even things like that don't help. Reading about so many others out there who REALLY know how I feel is very helpful. God bless everyone who suffers with this condidion and I hope someday somehow there will be a cure.

| Comments: | Hello everyone I had written about Dudu oson the black soap and here is a website you can go to to try this.
www.afrikanrepublic.com click on the link for soap on the left side of the screen and duduoson is $3.95 a bar whick is an average price. I hope this helps you. Also, on my face I have found Hydrocortisone plus with 12 moisturizers and aloe at Walmart off brand is Equate which works like a miracle for my face. I tried it out of desperation and it cleared the burning dried patches in 2 days and it doesn't burn. I have been using it for almost 4 weeks and have stopped every cycle of psoraisis including flaking drying burning redness and raised patches. Use a thin layer over dryness if you use too much you will have acne. I use this now when I feel it coming on and it has stopped it. I even bought makeup which I haven't even attempted in 15 years to wear because that would cause it to occur. I hope this helps ya'll. |

| Comments: | I'm a drummer and a web-desinger. I've had 'P' on and off since HS. What I have found that works well is a mixture of colloidal silver and bentonite clay. The consistency is a lot like moist cookie dow. I than apply it to my elbows/knees and use Nexcare clear bandaids to hold it in place. After a couple/three days, my skinn is very smooth, inflamation is reduced and I feel a lot better. The other thing I do which helps is practice 'visualization'. I visualize myself with clear, healthy skinn and give myself positive'self-talk' in the mirror. This can really do wonders.
Hope this helps- peace (5/30/05) |

| Comments: | I have suffered from P for 14 years and I have cleared my psoraisis from my legs using Duduoson pronounced(du du o sun) it is a black colored soap that is found a Sallys beauty Supply. I had 6 inch ovals of (P) down both legs and behind the knee and I used this soap and I haven't had a flare up in 8 years. I suffer from it only on my face. The soap smells great it doesn't sting and it will take away all of your (P) from your body. I hope this helps. I admit I haven't tried it on my face but I will let ya'll know if it helps there also. |

| Comments: | Hiya everyone,
i've been suffering since i was 5 yr old i am now 16- so roughly 11 yrs and it wasn't il y/day i actually got to see a specialist about it, up until that point all my doctors had told me that i had psoariasis on my scalp and excema on my body but it turns out i have always just had psoariasis- it doesn't give me a lot of faith in the medical system to find out that i have been using the wrong medical treatments for so long and had to go through bullying, attempting suicide and self cofindence issues where i suffered from trichotillomania (the pulling out of eyebrow and eyelashes) which i thankfully have stopped with my own willing and am glad to say that my hair has all grown back. When i went to go see the specialist yesterday they told me to tlk to others about it and i'm going to see the best dermatoligist specialist, pippa in england at the royalfree in july which i'm looking forward too. I've now got a list of ten different things i have to use for my psoariasis and wish that these finally work i am fed up of feeling like an outcast and like my dream of being a performer is never gonna happen because of it. I'm glad there are people who understand on here and i'd be v grateful if i could turn to sum of you when i feel my lowest, i would hate to back track on my lowest moments. thank you to whomever listens its good to get it all out. tasha xxx |

| Comments: | My mother just got out of the hospital. She had a grapfruit sized cyst on her pancreas.. The doctors all were in conclusion that one of the main causes for this cyst was her persistant use of enbrel!!!! I will not say that it is a bad drug... But please monitor yourself!! If her doctors were watching her more closely they would have noticed her white blood cells rising. But the doctor that perscribed enbrel thought it was a great drug that could do no wrong. So he was sure that she was fine... If you read the warnings, please notice if you have any infections. a cold that stays, the flu for a long period, any thing abnormal.

| Comments: | Hello Everyone!
I finally decided it was time that I reach out to a group of people that suffer from the same disease as myself. I had no trace of psoriasis for 30 years and had lived all my life in the North East portion of the U.S. My husband decided that we should move to Arizona and that's when my life changed drastically. I noticed a dime sized red bump on my right calf and it seemed to itch a great deal. Two months later I was in the doctor's office and he told me I had a form of psoriasis.I was given a very greasy topical med.that I used for about a year.I had psoriasis on both legs from the knees down and on my elbows.In about a year I went from plaque ridden to total remission and stayed that way for more than 10 years,however during the 11th year my father died of cancer,I was in the middle of getting divorced and I lost my home.You guessed it, the psoriasis was back-big time! I have tried everything, all topical ointments on the market, puva treatments,and now Enbrel. I have only been on it since Nov.2004 and so far it has stopped spreading on my legs but has started on my face and under my eyes--(ouch)Does anyone know if this drug may take longer to work on some individuals? Or should I try something else? Thanks in advance for the help! Getting discouraged, Sherry |

| Comments: | Hi,
I got p about 2 years ago right after the birth of my first daughter. It was only a small patch on my elbow. But during my second pregnancy it became a lot worse. I am still breast feeding my second daughter and would like to continue doing so. The doctor prescribed me Triamcinolone Cream which is safe during pregnancy and nursing, but it isin't doing a thing. It has now spread to my elbows, knees, ankles, scalp, and inside my ears. I am really concerned because my father has p covering about 90% of his body and is a flaky mess. Are there any other nursing or pregnant mothers out there who are in the same boat as me, or anyone else who has tried any natural cures with any sucess???? I am getting desperate.... |

| Comments: | Hey...
My psoriasis was bad last year, in the winter it would turn really red and hurt alot, and now ( one year later ) still in winter, i havent even had it really red or hurting even though it has been really cold. i was taking a few pills, on called slippery elm, some rose or something herd ( pill), and omega 3. i believe that they helped now that over the year it has not been as bad. yet where my red psoriasis was before has now turned white. i went tanning last year, about 3 times a week. i worked really well. while i was taking these pills. yesterday i was sitting in my kitchen and i felt mt scalp in one spot and it had a few little bumps, i went upstairs, looked in the mirror... and it was red where the little bumps were. i looked like the psoraisis i have/had on my body. when my psoriasis on my body was red i would only have it on my legs, arms, inside of my arms, thighs, back and hips. at one point of time i had it on my face, but that went away when i began tanning. I am only 13 years old. turning 14 soon. ive had psoraisis for about 1 year now. i really dont want it on my scalp. i have been able to deal with it on my body,yet i really really dont want it on my scalp. please e-mail if you know of something that helps. or if you can relate. thanks and i hope everyone gets better!

| Comments: | It has been both interesting and educational reading the various treatments and applications used in treating psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. I have psoriatic arthritis and;although, not totally opposed to holistic methods,am an avid believer in modern medicine and technology. To keep the psoriasis controlled, I tan for twenty minutes 4 times a week,I use shower gels,never soap when showering. When bathing, I use dead sea salts and/or lavender sugar scrub.For my scalp,I apply Cutivate cream and Cormax scalp application at least twice daily.Both of these medicines are now available in generic forms which saves a great deal of money. Vaseline is a good lubricant,especially this time of year.It keeps flared plaque patches from getting snagged on sweaters,etc. I have found a diet rich in protein,low fat and low carbs works best for me.I eat red meat,chicken and fish,lots of lettuce,spinach,brussels sprouts,broccoli,cauliflower and green beans.No fried foods,potatoes,pasta or rice.Also,oregano oil capsules and oregano oil itself seems to help the psoriasis and keeps away the common cold and allergy symptoms.Now,I don't know if I were to eliminate one of these practices what would happen, so, for now I hope to stick to the combination. I know I am an emotional eater and I have been giving in to my nervous,stress-related sweets cravings.These aren't good and make the arthritis worse every time.I want to kick this detrimental habit.I have no health insurance and am uninsurable;but, I am applying for the Enliven yourself program and if accepted ,will give Enbrel a try.Surround yourselves with happy people,places and things.Thank God that you have the body parts and are able to feel pain and pleasure and although there is no cure for our condition,there are ways of controlling it.For arthritis sufferers, go to Zcoil.com .Click on where to buy.If you haven't heard of Zcoils, do yourself a favor and go to the store closest to you and try on a pair.These shoes will make your daily tasks easier to tackle and you'll be amazed at the energy you'll have or that you'll be able to resume your exercise program or begin the one that was your new year's resolution before your symptoms or diagnosis...I'm guilty of that.I'm not too tired after working all day that I have to decline an invitation or that I can't go home and do household chores.I wouldn't dare make excuses knowing my consequences would be a setback.Wishing all of you a healthier year. |

| Comments: | Guys 'n gals,
Having printed off your Dreambook, so as I may take all the information in and store it for future reference, I could not stop myself from quickly (which turned out to not be so quick!) writing to say how useful it has been to me. I am truely pleased that I came across such an information bank. I cannot believe that any dermo doctor can possibly have so much info stored in their brains. But it is not just that, the support is amazing, everyone genuinely wishing everyone every success, it is so comforting to know that we can come together and help one another - so human!! However with all this in mind, it angers me so much that my doctors have not informed me of the products that some of you mention, most of which I have never heard of. Why? It has resulted in me being determined to write a quite frank, blunt and possibly rude letter to my local doctors surgery. I have suffered with the dreaded P for some seven years now. On my last three visits to my doctor, I have requested a referal to a dermo doc, so I can get an update on some new products (ironically this is the ONLY reason i wanted to get referred! Having only seen one dermo doc for approx a year after being told I had P - I didn't think i was being unreasonable). On each visit I have been fobbed off - now I have the ammo, there will be a lot of 'spilt blood'. Thank you to all those who have contributed (specially Russell) - I am sure I do not just speak for myself. Ashleigh Fletcher, MNAEA P.S. I do beleive that a chat room would be a great idea |

| Comments: | I am only 18 so you can imagine how embarassing it is to go to the beach with psoriasis covering 90% of your body. Well I have been trying to supress it for 3 years and finally something is working. Before I can be approved for Enbrel shots by my insurance my doctor told me I had to fail three other treatments: topical, PUVA, and Methotrexate. Well I failed the first two treatments so know I am trying Methotrexate, a pill taken once a week. I was so upset I cried for days (I really wanted Enbrel I know it works my family members are on it). But to my surprise the pill is actually working out great for me. In a months time my skin is smoother than it has been in 4 years. I finally feel like a teenager again. Finally my crying is because I am happy. (These results are just what I have experienced but everyone's psoriasis is different. I have severe plaque psoriasis, and someone else may experience different results or even bad side effects) |

| Comments: | Hello Kim.
Yr comments are uncalled for. Everyone on this site is suffering from a disease that has no known cure in the western world. I wish to clarify with all the readers on this site. My name is Clarence and my confirmation name is Russell. I am Catholic. Since when is it a crime to use a confirmation name on this site. I once again re-iterate I am not selling this product nor am i getting any commission from promoting it. I am a consumer. To date, I've spent more than US$2,000 on this product. It's your choice to believe in this product or not. If you are sceptical like Kim then dont bother trying it. I know what it is like to suffer from psoriasis cos I was afflicted with this disease for more than 3 years. Kim, don't act as an evangelist on this site please and dont spread rumors and dont take away the little bit of hope that the people on this site have. if you happen to be in Singapore, I would gladly meet up with you and show all the places on my body where the lesions once were cos all that remains now is fair skin. I am an Asian with brown skin and the healed skin has turned fair in comparison with the rest of my body. It is obvious that you are a non-believer and a pessimist. If I had taken your path of thinking, I would not have achieved success in whatever I do. You know I could have chosen to keep quiet and not share this product with anyone. But I did not. I have been contributing to this site since April 2004 and have been updating everyone on the progress of my condition. If you had bothered to check, you would have realised this. Everyone has choices in their lives. Well here's one more for you to make. That's all I have to say and I appreciate Kim that you keep your opinions to yourself cos you are not me and you did not try the product like I did. This site is for sharing information and not criticizing. if you choose to try any method suggested by the readers, it is your decision but please dont use this site as a platform to criticize the methods suggested by the readers. |

| Comments: | I have had psoriasis since I was in diapers....approximately 29 years, however it wasn't diagnosed correctly until I was around 13. At 13, with the onset of puberty (hormones), I broke out horribly across my forehead,scalp, around my eyes, lips, hands, fingernails and feet. I had been from doctor to doctor, dermatologist to dermatologist. I had been given cortizone shots twice a week, which would clear it up but then it would return twice as bad. I tried every over the counter and prescription medicine available. It wasn't until I came across the dermatologist I refer to as "The Miracle Man" that my skin condition was given the name psoriasis and was treated correctly.
This Miracle Man immediately started giving me UV light treatments 3x a week and my patches started healing almost immediately. Within a couple months all traces of psoriasis was gone and I had no scarring. It wasn't until 3-1/2 years ago while pregnant with my second child that my psoriasis made a reappearance (I truly believe it to be hormonal). I currently have breakouts on the corner of my eyes, on my hands, feet and scalp. Anyway, my trouble lies in the fact that my "Miracle Man" doc has since retired and I am unable to get the rest of the medical community to listen to me. Even the docs in the same office dismiss my skin condition as eczema..regardless of having my full medical chart and before and after photos of me at 13. I'm forced to go through the bullsh%t of creams/ointments..blah blah.. that are useless. My question is to all of you. Do you have any advise on how to demand or get the treatment (PUVA) I am seeking??? |

| Comments: | Hello all! I have had psoriasis for over 12 years. Truthfully, my dermatologists think that it's psoriasis. It is so very mild that it's virtually indistinguishable from eczema, seb derm, or atopic dermatitis. Whether it's mild or not, any psoriasis sufferer knows how difficult it is for lesions to go away.
What worked for me: Elocon along the hairline, Protopic at night on any lesions on the face, I would use Elidel cream during the day on face, and Luxiq foam for the scalp. What did NOT work for me: Dovonex and Dermasmoothe. For stubborn lesions, I would apply steroid and occlude it. I would do the latter only on the leg. My scalp tends to be dry, and if it scales, it is usually very fine scaling. I don't have a buildup nor do I bleed. Finaly, I found that OTC CVS hydrocortisone cream is great on flexural lesions. I do believe that diet and exercise improves things. However, I believe that stress and anxiety are worse than an imbalanced diet and less that active regimen. But once your psoriasis flares, anyone can tell you how hard it is NOT to be stressed out even more. I always aim to get back to controlling it. Never ignore a lesion. Do something about it. I'm also trying to drink more water everyday. I am not exactly an "8 glasses of water a day" kind of person. My suspicions were confirmed in a recent article I read. Moisturizers can actually worsen the condition. I would always notice how dry my skin felt sometimes even after I used moisturizer. It also tended to make the lesions a bit more red. I prefer drinking water to restore moisture in the skin. So I'm giving it a shot, as I know it takes well over a month to repair the skin barrier. Good luck to you all! |

| Comments: | Hello everyone. I read all the comments and sometimes I find it helpful and sometimes I am so disappointed. Example- On October 12Th, see Whitney’s comments. Whitney these people are desperate for information- After I read yours I thought – I hope this woman does not think DIET has nothing to do with Psoriasis. Whitney diet has everything to do with life. With weight, health, cancer,etc. Your quick comments could persuade thousands of people to head to the nearest doctor office and sign up for the latest band aid. I tried Metho- loved it- cleared my skin in no time. My husband said after 6 weeks, that I looked like I was dying. I felt like I had all the life sucked out of me. (I stopped Metho,thatweek). But my skin was clear! That same day I met a woman (at my sons soccer practice) who gave me more information on health than any doctor (I respect doctors/my father-in-law is a doctor). She introduced me to her holistic doctor. He tested my blood and my colon. I found out what my food allergies were and how much yeast and good bacteria (which is not enough) lives in my system. It turns out (which I already expected that I had Candida (which I thought all along). Everyone please go to this link and read this article. Dr. Mercola is the number one holistic web site in the world. Use his search engine- type in psoriasis- Read! Read! Read about your disease.
http://www.mercola.com/2004/dec/1/ease_that_itch.htm Next take time to read every word of this next article- it will show you why doctors do not know certain things and what the pharmaceutical world is all about- And though the title starts out talking about hormones- it’s main point is all about food and what it is doing to us. Don’t skip a word and I promise you, by the end, you will see the light. http://www.mercola.com/2001/jul/4/hrt.htm Lastly, On December 3rd- see Russell comments. It turns out there is no Russell- but when you respond to his craze@ pac net email, you will get a response from the very company he said he does not indorse. On Dec 12th he writes again with a new email address. I still have not found Russell. Psoriasis can not go away with a pill. You MUST change your life style- I still have psoriasis (tiny amounts)- but it does not rule my life anymore- and I have made so many more lifestyle changes to avoid the next big thing like cancer and heart disease. Please read these articles. You can change your Psoriasis. As far as UV treatments, yes they work- I get a 2 minute treatment once every two weeks, to further help my condition. If you eat the right foods… that is all you will need! Good luck every one |
