just wondering if any of you have
psoriasis or if you know anyone who does?
I have just been diagnosed with it and
just wanted to know if anyone on here has
been ok with the condition.
At the moment I have had it on the back of
my elbows. I don t like it but I think I
can live with it there, im just scared it
will spread all over my body! :cry:
has anyone on here got or had the
condition and it has not spred? Or has
anyone know someone who has it and it
hasnt really affected their life? I have
been on some other sites and actual
psoriasis forums for the condition but
everyone seems to have severe cases.
Also wondering - my dr say you can have
flare ups, anyone know how long they
usually last?
Thanks guys x

Isn't it a life long disease it'll never
go away. It might not flare up but it'll
come back. Thats what my doctor told me,
its gentic not from bad eating habits like
bigman said. I have had psoriasis since I
was 7. It started a small spot on the
back of my head and spread to the whole
back of my head, to the cornor of my eyes,
to my elbows ( which cleared up for now
but will probably come back) to my arm
pit, to actually my pubic area which is
really embarrsing espically when I meet a
new guy. When someone asks whats wrong
wtih my eye I just simply tell them its a
skin disorder. Yea I get some weird
stares but ive gotten use to it

Psoriasis & Eczema Posted: 09-01-06 12:27pm
My best friend has psoriasis. She has
had it all her life. She use to use a
massive amount of lotion to control it.
But a few months ago someone introduced
her to a line of products called
"arbonne".She said would help it. At
first she didn't think it would work but
free products why not. When she tried it
it did work about a week later it was
completly gone. Of course she called all
her friends about it. I checked into it
& the company says it reduces eczema
too. My nephew has severe eczema so I
told my sister to try it & it
completly cleared his skin up & they
spent so much money on steriods that is
was crazy. Now she just buys those
products regularly...Her doctor was
amazed. He is doing some trials now to
see if it was just his skin or if others
will have this same reaction & he says
a few others have noticed the change as
well. So I think you can pretty much
keep it from coming back but not really
sure what it is about those products I
just know they don't use any kinds of
chemicals at all. If you would like more
info just e mail me or go to edit I love
this stuff it helped my sister & my
friend so much I tell everyone about it.
