I am 87 and have suffered from psoriasis for nearly 3yrs the worst part is the itching which gives me sleepless nights and very little quality of life sometimes hoping not to wake up.
Well a few weeks ago I had my second appointment with a dermatologist who this time gave me a thorough exam and a long chat about my symptoms.
He prescribed Fexofenadine 180mg 4 times a day which I have been taking anyway but also Gabapentin 300mg one capsule 3 times a day.
The result is almost straight away although my rash is still there the itching has 90% gone with no side effects. I have been on these drugs now for about 3 weeks and I feel great, I hope and pray this improvement will continue.
I hope perhaps others with this horrible disease may get the same relief I am getting.
