I did not know what psoriasis was until I started suffering from it a few years ago now. When I was 16, one of my classmates was doing my hair during break time and remarked out loud that I had a big dandruff problem as she peeled off flakes as big as a 5 p coin from my scalp. Needless to say I was very embarrassed as I was not even ...

Back in the mists of time...Well 12 years I discovered a few small red spots on my torso....Thinking I might have something infectious I went to my GP and he diagnosed an allergic reaction, prescribed me a bottle of Anti-histamine and sent me on my way. 2 weeks alter I had flared for the first time, I had ...

Exorex is the first off the shelf product for Psoriasis that I have found to be helpful in treating my skin condition. In fact I would go as far as to say that, for me, it has been better than a lot of the Prescription only preparations I have used over the years. I have been using Exorex for about the past 5 years now and I have been very happy ...

It really astounds me how people can be so insensitive when it comes to a common ailment such as psoriasis. Here I will write and tell you about My hubby and his condition. First of all let me tell you first and foremost psoriasis is not catching, by kissing someone, over night you will not go all red and scaly. The ignorance of ...

I've had psoriasis for 13 years following meningitis, I'm a firm believer in an infection causing this as no-one else in the family has ever had psoriasis and I never had a patch until my illness, which incidentally followed a bad throat infection. I've tried everything including giving up my favourite food - Cheese and drink- ...

I've had Psoriasis since I was 18 I'm actually one of the lucky one's in that mine is very minor. I find that if I'm going through the slightest bit of stress then I will have an episode of Psoriasis. Psoriasis (sore-I-ah-sis) is a common immune-mediated chronic skin disease that comes in different forms and varying ...

For as long as I can remember, I have suffered from an itchy scalp which seemed to come and go when I was younger. Then about ten years ago, it seemed to suddenly get worse. After I had washed my hair, my scalp would tighten, and the top layer of skin would thicken as it dried, and flake off in huge, thick lumps. Eliminating the obvious ...

I consider myself lucky that I do not suffer from the skin disease psoriasis myself, but I know two people who do. One has it on his scalp, joints and back and my friend has it over her entire body including her face. Although I cannot begin to imagine what it must be like to have the constant itch and to try all the various ...

Two years ago I had no idea what psoriasis was. It was something that you heard talked about but like all normal people you always assume that it will be someone else that the condition will affect. However as a result of an increase in my workload my skin began to show indicators of this condition in the form of white patches on my ...

Do you remember The Singing Detective? It was a musical drama from the late 80's, starring Michael Gambon. He had psoriasis really badly, and was confined to his hospital bed, where he had lots of bizarre fantasies! The guy who wrote that programme, Dennis Potter, also suffered from psoriasis. He died a few years ago from cancer, but ...

They say your body changes every 7 years, I don't know who says that but if its true then I've only three years to go with this irritating skin disorder! Whilst pregnant with my second child, and potty training my then 2 and a half year old I noticed a small patch on my elbow had become rough and dry, as it got more itchy I ...

Approximately one million people in Great Britain suffer from this skin disorder - and I'm one of them. I do not have an extreme case of psoriasis, but one that is irritating and occasionally disfiguring. I read a great opinion on this subject and wondered if I should bother to put in my two-pennies worth; I decided to do so because I ...

Psoriasis is an under rated skin condition that affects at least 1% of the nation, yet I see no box here for this embarrassing incurable condition.A Ahem, I stand corrected, thanks John Why am I so interested in this subject? Because I am one of that one percent. So did you wonder why it had taken so long for me to ...
