Hi. New to this, usually suffer alone drenched in self pity. Had a bout of above disgusting disease in 1993 till 1997 which inexplicably disappeared when my son was born only for it suddenly to return in all its glory last year. Im 58 yrs old, been taking acetretin this time round and its been a miracle drug, at least on the outside, i can walk (though not as far as i could when i didnt have ppp) and use my hands fairly normally. Thats such a blessing, but i still feel like a monster. How i envy those who can take all this in their stride. Side effects are many but mostly light and livable with. Anyone else hate with a vengeance bloody zipzok. So...i dread if i ever have to come off the medication. Hoping for another remission but dont know why it happened in the first place. Anyway this is me. Just wanted to introduce myself xxx
