A psoriasis blog

Hi Emily. I have had psoriasis for two years now and after hours of research, paid to visit a nutritionist. She recommended a diet of no wheat, alcohol, sugar or dairy for three months. She has prescribed a variety of supplements but the main one being probiotics. After three weeks on the diet and two on the supplements, I am a little depressed not to be noticing an improvement yet but trying to remain positive

I've had this condition for over 2 years. It started off as callus on my scalp which will go away after applying some medicinal lotions. But it got more and more persistent over time. My already receding hariline got thinnner by day and obviously I was depressed about the patches being more and more visible as my hair thinned out. I tried numerous doctors who prescribed different medicines and none of those seemed working. Then I decided to try homeopathic treatment for a change. It started to worsen intitially (apparently that this is basic principle of the homeopathic treatment) but I decided to continue. Amazingly, the entire condition disappeared after a couple of months of treatment and the best thing is that, there were no diet restrictions (which turned out to be a boon for me considering the fact that I am a foodie). I was told to continue the medication even if psoriasis subsided as the doctor promised to cure me completely at the end of the course. I suggest people who are suffering from this condition to keep fighting and try homeo medicine and see the effect for yourselves. It, sure as hell, did worked wonders for me.

I have had psoriasis for close to 30 years. I have posted in other areas, but the main thing is that Psoriasis is not just "flaky/itchy skin" it is an autoimmune disease that can be a missing link to many other issues that you may have going on in your body. Many Drs. and dermatologist who are not very familiar with the disease will just give you topical or oral treatments to address the skin and send you on your way. If you have psoriasis you can become susceptible to many other autoimmune diseases or vitamin deficiencies that can become harmful if you are not aware of them. There are many things that I discovered on my own research that I felt a Dr. should have known and could have saved years of wonder and experimentation of products.
