Hello NickyP I have moved your post to this board as it will get noticed better, as you had already posted an intro. Hi! I've just joined!
Fist off I would say slow down as you could be taking in to much info, as what works for some may not work for others. Most certainly go and see a dermatologist, Jim may have some advice on this as he is in Norfolk too.
UV can work but it needs regulating by a professional to get it right.
Re Coconut Oil: you use it as a moisturiser, you can eat it too but it's best rubbed twice a day on your skin. *Note it will not cure psoriasis, just keep you well moisturised.
Banana skins: Is a myth in my opinion, and is more like a placebo. Again it wont cure but if you believe in it then maybe it could help for a while.
Diet: Some say it can work but I'm not convinced or seen enough evidence, but it won't hurt you to try if you want.
Stress: Is very bad for psoriasis, and yes psoriasis can make you tired.
But most of all I would recommend you get to see that dermatologist.
