Close Psoriasis
Affected Areas: Psoriasis of the Skin

I was diagnosed 12 years ago with severe Plaque, I now have Flexura and Guttate to add to that list. Im now 23 y/o gal and I try to live every bit of my life as fully as I can!

Treatments

Betamethasone (Topical) Somewhat Helpful

It helped to abit.... not enough for a notable difference.

Coal Tar Not Working

and it smells too......

Dovonex Working / Worked

It was so so....

Methotrexate Working / Worked

It has changed my life... My breakouts were so severe I couldnt go to the loo because it was too painful. I have some side effects but the quality of life I have with the meds FAR outweighs them. They are: nails stoped growing, hair falls out abit.. nausea, tiredness, digestive problems, thirsty... BUT atleast I can wee with a smile on my face!

Folic Acid Not Working

to help with side effects.... I was prescribed one 2.5mg tablet every second day... It flared my psoriasis after my 1st dose. a week after I was 2 steps behind square one. It was the worst it had EVER been.
