Hello from Grant

[Boise30m]

My name is Grant. I got my first psoriasis outbreak at the age of 30 last month same day as the fires in Santa Rosa. For almost a month I went to the doctors office and they did not know what I had they prescribed me prednizone steriods. Then I had this old physicians assistant tell me I had psoriasis on November 4. I made an appointment with a dermatologist for November 16. Since finding out I have psoriasis I have done a lot of research online. I quit energy drinks, coffee, sugar, have been going to the tanning salon doing relight therapy bed. I am taking a probiotic, milk thistle, tumeric, fish oil, l-lysine, vit d3, lotion, dead sea salt. I have it on my arms, legs, and stomach. Right now it is worst on my arms. It is awful, and to know that there is no cure it is chronic. I saw online some people who had it, and wanted to kill themselves. I can understand why. I am trying to stay strong, and do everything I can. I do not want to take the prednizone or any steriods because it did not help very much, on some blogs people said it came back worse after they stopped using it. It helped mine a little bit but not enough then I did not know I had psoriasis just a rash. It is not worth it for me. I am trying other methods. I wish I lived near the Dead Sea and could soak in it, or that I lived by a beach. I live in Boise Idaho its getting colder by the day will snow soon. I am visiting my grandmother in Florida in December that should be nice for my psoriasis also.
