Fucking psoriasis!
For those that might think it's a benign condition, they really need to know what a distressing constant battle living with this shit really is!
I am extremely fortunate, my P started about 9/10 years ago now and by the grace of God, it's only about 2/3% coverage in small spots.
1% coverage being the size of the palm of your hand.
I use Calcipotriol ointment which in the main keeps the condition from flaring to monstrous proportion but never calms it down enough to make it go away.
If I miss as much as one day of treatment, it can take almost a week to cover lost ground!
I know there are others on this site who live with this demon and to we who suffer silently with this condition, I should like to ask if anyone has tried LDN?
Low dose Naltrexone (1mg/5.5mg) daily seems to have a very positive response to autoimmune conditions like P.
It has no side effects except vivid dreams and does not boost or suppress the immune system. I'm not entirely sure how it works but seems to have something to do with blocking endorphins, which to rectify, the body produces more endorphins.
It does not work in all cases and is not, yet another, snake oil magic bullet.
Not only does it make you feel better but seems to regulate the immune system for a wide number of autoimmune conditions.

I do not yet know if I can even get the stuff here in NZ but I'm keen to try. As a sufferer, all be it a mild one, the thought of being clear is too much to pass up, so I'm going to investigate and pursue this.
Has anyone tried it?
What results did it have?
Hang in there my fellow P victims, a genetic cure is but years away I'm sure, please God.
Pup, x.
