Thank you all for the warm welcome.
I look forward to reading about everyones experiences and figuring out where I need to go with my psoriasis.
To be honest I haven't been to a dermatologist in 8 years.  She told me because I don't have psoriasis on 30% of my body she didn't think I needed any treatment (other than the creams, that never worked on the larger spots so stopped using) but now for whatever reason I'm getting spots all over.
I like hearing about peoples experiences with different treatments before I go back to a dermatologist first.  I think my worry too in the past are the longterm effects some of these drugs have.

Thanks again for the welcome 

I would suggest reading the oral options here first as I think that is where they would start. Oral Treatments For Psoriasis *I'm pretty sure you will not be offered Fumaderm or Skilarence in Canada.

From there you could use the Search and put in the different treatments for example "Acitretin" and you will see a range of threads to choose that interest you.

Failing that you can also start as many threads as you like in Prescribed Treatments For Psoriasis asking about the different treatments if you have any questions.

But I would push to see a dermatologist again Treena as 8 years is a long time and a lot has changed since then.
