[split] Acitretin

[jiml]

Hi Kelly,

I don't exactly get what the doctor said to you. Does he think you should go off the medication?
I have the impression that the medication is essential for you, am I correct?

Can't help you with the shampoo things, I don't colour my hair so have never searched for the specific shampoos that will save coloured hair.

Thanks for the update, always nice to hear how others are going.

My understanding Caroline and I could be wrong is that the dermatologist is happy with the Acetretin, although elevated bloods there is no need for additional medication to control the blood ( it's not high enough to add more medication) so I read it as "continue as the current plan", but with a vitamin D cream to help with the few spots that are hanging on.

@kelly
Your psoriasis may well be erupting a bit if you have stress in your life at the moment , it is a known trigger and if that is the case, maybe as the stress gets less the psoriasis that has come back may well disappear, the vitamin D cream may be helpful it will be interesting to read if it works
