Hi Jo and 
to the club. You have found a great place here for advice and support for this disease, as you will find us all friendly group of like minded sufferers that know what you are going through. My advice to you is tell your GP that you are not an unfortunate case, as psoriasis is a very common condition and that you would like to be referred to a NHS dermatologist, as the private dermatologist offerered you nothing that your GP could have offered and a hospital dermatologist has many more things in their armoury to treat it with .....but it is a bit hit and miss what will and won't work ...
Your problem with the hair falling out is very unfortunate and may be caused by the mix of treatments but I'm not an expert and hair loss is not something I have heard of from using topical shampoos and creams
Hopefully someone else may have better answers for you, but do keep coming and talking about it as sharing a problem often helps reduce the stress Enjoy the forum
