Hi everyone
Newbie here, I have decided to look for a clinical trial that I can go on that me a be miracle cure for my chronic plaque psoriasis, whilst I was trawling my way around the t'internet I fell upon this group, helloooo!
Brief history, I had a heart attack in Jan 2016, this was bought on Polycythemia caused by sleep apnea, now, it was either the shock to the body of the heart attack, or all of the meds that I have been taken since that have caused my condition, or just bad luck. Now, it has got quite bad, particularly on my hands and legs and groin, I have tried every single steroid that is possible, no luck, I had light treatment at Watford General Hospital (Steve, the nurse there, is a Saint), it worked fantastically, for two months afterwards I felt great, unfortunately it only lasted two months. Here I am four months after the treatment finished and my skin is wrecked again, psychologically I feel awful as well.
I found a thread on your forum regarding Otezla, now, this has not been offered to me yet, my GP's are not what they were, can any members here give me any feedback as to their experiences with this drug please? I wouldn't say I am desperate, as I am sure there are other people out there much worse than me, but any help will be really appreciated at the moment.
Thanks in advance.
Yours aye!
