my father in law and brother in law both suffer from this, they found uv lights, solariums and sunlight really helps! Hope you are able to find something that eases it a little

I don't have it as advanced as shown in that picture, but I've had psoriasis since around 1994 or so. It sucks but there are treatment options. Good luck!

Vivamus, I don't know what they are going to do? I've been sick for a long time. They just told me that I had a rash and bad nerves! Ya think!? They even had me thinking that it was all in my head even though I had physically visible symptoms; and my blood work was always crazy! I've have terrible pains in my spine (neck, back, and hips); but no one would give me anything for pain? I guess they think that all nurse's are drug seeking?
I'm going to ask for pain meds tomorrow and see if they will give them to me. I may have to throw a fit! No wonder the antidepressants didn't work and made me feel worse! Oh, I can go on for days about this!
Es and Abandoned, thanks for your kind words and support.

MM...
just a friendly warning..... when you go to Curezone.com, be careful.... it's very addictive and you could be there for hours. On the positive side, there are people there who've been in your shoes and will tell you what they've done to get over whatever malady one has.

My grandmother had a horrible case of this. The psoriasis meds they had her on hurt her liver, so be careful. She found Milk Thistle, sunlight and Vit D helped.
Good luck, I have seen how miserable this is.
