    • About Me

      I'm a 28 year old mother of a very active 4 year old boy. He's starting school in September and I'm going back to work so am going through a "get back in shape" phase at the moment. One of my friends suggested joining a support network to help me achieve my goals, so here I am. :) Wish me luck.

      Affected Areas: Psoriasis of the Skin

      I had my first Psoriasis outbreak about 4 years ago when I was going through quite a stressful time in my life. I managed to get rid of most of it from my arms and legs but since then I have always had little patches in various places. It's a pain but I count myself lucky that I only have it mildly now. I've also always had trouble with my joints and fear the day that my arthritis kicks in. But for now, Psoriasis is manageable for me.

      Treatments

      Coal Tar Working / Worked
      Really good for scalp Psoriasis.
      Dovonex Somewhat Helpful
      Not as good for me as Elocon.
      Elocon Working / Worked
      The Daddy! This is the only thing that works for me. It still leaves me with patches sometimes but no scales or plaques.
      Hydrocortisone Working / Worked
      I had "inverted" Psoriasis under my arm for a while and this really helped as Elocon cream really stings under there.
      Phototherapy Working / Worked
      I use a sun bed occasionally and this really seems to help. Downside of skin cancer I suppose so it's personal choice with this one.
