Heather,
I have a couple other ideas you can try.  I have been off and on insurance in
the past 15 years that I have had P as well and have had to just get by.  I am
working on some natural herbal ointments that I have come up with myself to help
ease the pain and flaking of P.  When I get them the way I want them I would
like anyone from the group who wants to try them to do so and write up a report
for me.  Any way I use T-gel shampoo for my scalp and touch up my forhead and
behind my ears and the back of my neck with MG-217 (Walgreens).  On the rest of
my body I use cocoa butter right after my shower and then put vasaline on over
that.  I get the vasaline from Walmart and the Cocoa butter from the ethnic
section also at walmart or at the family dollar store.  I also take burdock
tincture by mouth 2 times a day with granulated soy lethicin in juice.  I also
add 3 cod liver capsules 2 times per day for the vitamin and oil content.  You
can get all of
these items from Wal-mart, Walgreens and the family dollar store and it won't
break your budget.  The Burdock tincture and soy lethicin you will have to get
at a health food store or herb store and it isn't too expensive either.  I have
access to these herbs and the Lethicin because I am a traditional Native
American Healer and Herbalist so if you have trouble let me know!  Good luck!
Bill

I used to go to a tanning salon daily and it worked very well.. Try
to find uvb beds. uva beds still seem to work. also try to find some dead sea
salts and soak in them in the tub.

Hi,

I am Heather and I've had psoriasis for 25 years. Gee, sounds like I'm

introducing myself to a AA group. Lol (which there's nothing wrong

with belonging to that kind of group don't want to get anybody upset or

anything). I tried just about all the meds and treatments out there. At

this time I don't have insurance so just kinda toughing it out for the

moment. Any suggestions?
