Well hi folks. A forum for everything!!!
So, how did I find myself here?
I'm in my 50's and had psoriasis since about 21. Started slowly, head, lugs and legs. Got all the potions and lotions and eventually light treatment in a half barrel for legs only.
I eventaully got more bits, some joined together, some on injury sites like voluntary psoriasis biopsies!!!
Too much light and started the biological stuff. One put my cholesterol up, meathatraxate made me sick so started injecting, that eventually mae me depressed (self diagnosis) but when you fall out with a cup of coffee and start swearing at it (plus other things) it's time to review meds.
Now on fumaderm.
There might be some side effects! You're no' kidding Batman
Was up to 270mg daiiy, 99% reduction, 30mg a day maintenance dose for over a year, increased SLOWLY recently to 120mg in the morning.
HOT FLUSHES are killing me. Even on 30mg/daily.
I'll post looking for HOT FLUSH relief elsewhere.
Nice to find this place.
