Does anybody want to create a support group?

Hi I know this post is from 2 years ago but I was wondering if the support group was something you’re interested in? I’ve never really spoken to anyone about psoriasis and thought talking to someone with it and is in a similar situation might help.

Hi. I think that's a great idea. Where do we start??

Hi, i am Layla. Im a 17 year old suffering really bad with my Psoriasis. Currently, it is all over my body , in my hair and also in my ears and behind them. My story: back in November I noticed a small rash, nothing to big so I decided oh it will be fine. Nothing to worry about, a few weeks later it had wide spread. I rang the doctors and they gave me a phone call appointment stating it was just a viral infection and that if I don’t see change in the coming weeks to call back and arrange an appointment. I rang for 5 days straight and couldn’t get an appointment. At this point I contacted 111 where i was sent to an out of hours doctor appointment. I was assessed and told i have psoriasis. In which they prescribed be Dermal 500. Once again this did not help, after Christmas i made another appointment. I was told i had a bad infection behind my ears due to it not being treated right. I have currently been prescribed: Dovobet for my body, Eumovate for my face, Betnovate for my hair and also Dandrazol. This was a month n a half ago and i still cannot see any improvement other than just my face. Im currently in college studying but due to my hair i have to constantly wear a hat as i am insecure of it. My mental wellbeing is currently in the gutter and i don’t think i am getting anywhere with my treatment.

I’d be Intrested Iall want ti send numbers I’ll set up wats ap group Also have to remember it’s auto so creams ETC. won’t work But how ling can u apply cream for

I am living near Tiffin Ohio and would love to actually get together in person with a couple or even a group of people (any age group) who have Psoriatic Arthritis. Anyone out there who would be interested in meeting in person? I am a firm believer that person to person conversations are more helpful and "complete" than what happens with these discussion groups. I suggest we could meet in a public restaurant at first just to get a bit acquainted. And then go from there. I have severe psoriatic arthritis and am a recent thyroid cancer survivor - and am currently having massive flares of the psoriatic lesions and pain and am finally coming out of a severe depression. Thank God! It would be so great if anyone else feels the same way - and replies. Thank you. Terri

I am confused. I am brand new to this. What I was suggesting and hopeful for was a "in person" psoriatic arthritis support group near where I live? Was that an inappropriate question?
