Hi everyone
I have had psoriasis for a long time, but it wasn't bad until recently. IT got MUCH worse this fall with an outbreak of guttate psoriasis. The streoids no longer work for me and I'm currently doing narrowband UVB treatments 3x a week. I am seeing very slow, but steady progress. I have also had psoriatic arthritic arthritis, diagnosed in APril.

Looking forward to getting to know you all.
Ally
