Hi There

[Rohan]

Hi My name is Rohan

Ive suffered for many years with Psoriasis...

My condition was limited to my legs intially and was very bad...in the last 3 years its moved to my upper body although not so bad there.

I have been through ever conventional western treatment the only ones left are lethal drugs such as 'Methotrexate'. The only effective treatment I had was UV but that was a temporary fix.

I found Chinese herbal medicine effective for a few months but the herbal concoctions had to be boiled twice a day and they smelt pretty bad!...drinking them were even harder...but you know what lengths we go to in our quest for relief from this burden we bear!

In the last 3 years I have been going to India for Ayurvedic treatment ...which almost totally clear my condition for periods of up to 6 months. These treatments consist of having your body purified through diet restriction internal medicines and twice daily massages and other external treatments. You have to stay in a clinic for 2 weeks and it can be expensive and torturous. The last time I went was around 14 months ago and I dont have time to go back.

I did have some medicine I was taking which help to control it but its run out now!.

I had almost a year of feeling human again and began to forget the pain and sorrow this illness brings!...recently my legs have got really bad and my upper body is rapidly getting worse...

Ive joined this forum because like anything you have to suffer directly to understand the trauma an illness can cause....and after a year of normality in my life Ive dropped down to earth with a bang!

Will this journey ever end ?....if not I need company to ease the pain!
