  • When I went to Morocco on holiday a dear old Moroccan woman told me to use argan oil for my psoriasis. It was the last day of the holiday so I didn't have time to purchase it there. I wasn't sure at first but I eventually plucked up the courage and bought PureArgan Skin by Mama Nature online. Well this has been marvellous and the improvement to my skin is truly outstanding. If she was here I would give her a big hug. I would recommend this to any psoriasis sufferer.

  • i had acne my whole teenage life...i finally start getting it under control in my early 20s and then just my luck i develop psoriasis on my for head on...now its everywhere scalp mostly and but small spots all over me...i hate it...i can live with it but its annoying but what really scares me is the fact that people with one auto immune disease are more likely to develop another one..i really hope they come up with some cures or better more practical treatments

  • I just want it to go away :((( its such a pain!!

  • Hey all, has anyone tried the psoriasis social network psoriasissocial. o r g ? A dedicated social network where a psoriasis community discuss psoriasis causes and psoriasis medicine.

  • Most treatment only treat the psoriasis patches. To treat psoriasis effectively and send it into remission for good you have to treat the root causes and the patches at the same time as well as boosting your immunity. This of course will involve lifestyle changes, detoxing to clean out the toxins causing the psoriasis and also the liver, blood and kidneys. The one that’s cleared my psoriasis and does all this is a treatment called psoriasis new treatment (no spaces) dot com.

  • Caridee is GORGEOUS!

    She's probably one of my fav ANTM. 

  • She took injections called Stelera, but beware. These are called biologic medicines and they lower your immune system therefore making your body more susceptible to infections. There's a lot of health complications with biologics.

  • Excuse me? Yes it is a skin disease. It's actually an auto immune disease that affects your skin cells. Why don't you try researching something before you gawk about it Rene? You have no idea what the hell you are talking about. I have psoriasis and it is a chronic disease. The immune system is hyper active therefore reproducing skin cells at a faster rate than usual. Food has NOTHING to do with it. Idiot.

  • why wont she say what medication helped her????? i want to know.

  • I've had it since august. It's awful. I'm a teenager so you get judged on how you look. Nothing seems to help and I can't do the stuff that comes in iv form because I have kidney problems. I do phototherapy, diet and creams.

  • INSPIRATIONAL. Sums up this video

  • INSPIRATIONAL. Sums up this video

  • she is very pretty...

  • Does anyone who has commented on this or watched it NOT have psoriasis?

  • @Yellow4494 -- Well Honestly, I don't believe you have to be the one inflicted with psoriasis to want to watch this. She was speaking to the general public and providing her knowledge of the disease. I'm a nursing student and don't have psoriasis, but my brother who is 15 was just diagnosed with it by a dermatologist the other day. I'm doing personal research on Psoriasis to better understand it so as to help my brother and any future patients I may interact with in my future who may have it

  • @Yellow4494 I don't...do you really think that only people who are effected by diseases are the only ones who watch them...haha

  • My mother's horrible psoriasis was virtually healed by Nopalea cactus juice. Seriously. Expensive but worth it.

  • @thelobsterjesus

    hey! Where can I get this? :) Have never heard of this remedy before! Thanks for yr time :) !

  • @Gothixax She gets it online only. You drink a little bit each night. It tastes good, but after a few weeks or so you start to notice results. It's called "Trivita Sonoran Bloom".

  • check out CariDee's music - search FamousEnglishWings! @famousenglishwings

  • I had it since i was 5 too =(

  • man she's really a sweet girl. Very genuine, sympathetic, caring and informative! She's right too, can let this shit stop us.

  • Psoriasis is often caused by food intolerance - the inability of your body to tolerate certain foods. You can stop the breakouts by simply following a diet that is designed specifically for you and based on your food intolerance analysis. There's no need to suffer or poison yourself with medications. In NYC, a nutrition clinic called ImmunoHealth can test and treat your food intolerance and help you eliminate your skin problems.

  • I love this Girl! She inspires me, and I myself have psoriasis and know how dificult it is to live with it...Ive come to terms with my disorder and learned how to appreciate the inner me.

  • Comment removed

  • I use 1 kg of E45 every 8 weeks. Hope my info has helped someone. Also it helps me when I sweat alot, get plenty exercise and drink load of water and veg!! yes I have contradicted myself about the diet comment!! maybe it does play an important factor but only because a bad diet would affect anyones weak spot, (ours being our skin I guess). Anyway don't let Psoriasis get you down you are not alone. Keep looking after yourselves, ...one day there will be a cure I'm sure x

  • @oldschoolwaverider

    it's all about the diet, i got a food sensitivity test done at a naturopath cost is about $80 it took 20 min, no pain at all, no needles, they tested for 320 different foods, i'm sensitive to 45 of them, things like caffein, cola, all dairy products, alcohol and more.

    everyone with psoriasis should get this test done to know what to stop eating,

    psoriasis is a symptom, creams and lotions only mask the problem.

    blaisr.d@gmail.com

  • @Blaisrd

    I had the same test I still have the booklet from 1999. Shame it made little difference to me. I am glad it helped you. I will find something eventually :)))

  • @oldschoolwaverider No no no, do not use E45!! It is full of nasty stuff like parabens and liquid parafin! For all the effort you are going to sweating out toxins you are just reloading your skins with toxins again. Avoid E45 like the plague. Use Salcura prods instead, MUCH better.

  • @nickylw1979 salcura prods? I'll have a look on google. I'm living in Taiwan at the moment so I'll put my money on that I can't get it as I can't even get E45 here! BTW, I've been using E45 for years!!!

  • This lady say's the most important thing " There are alot worse things you can have"

    It's surprising how many people have psoriasis too. I shower for about 20 minutes everyday and scrub it all away with my fingers, (anything else makes it bleed) and then once out the shower put thin layer of E45 cream all over body let it soak in, cloclose the blinds and open the window helps to let your body cool if you're in a rush to go out. Then another layer of E45 till skin feels like its absorbed it all.

  • Surfing helps me because of the salt water. I went to Hikkaduwa which is in Sri Lanka for 8 weeks in December 2006 for a surfing holiday and it cleared up 80 percent of mine. When I returned to England in January 2007 about 70 percent of what I had came back. I think the climateis an important factor. Mine is alot worse during the cold mornings. When there's frost on the ground, I notice it's more sore. Vitamin D in sunlight seems to helps me.

    I'm 27 and had psoriasis since I was about 6.

  • I remember falling out of my bunk bed and hurting my arm that was my first patch of psoriasis, which I had till I was 25 ( when I went to Sri Lanka it went with the sun and hasn't came back). I have never noticed any difference with diet really, but with experience have learned to listen to my body as to what it needs. Finishing Uni, less stress has made a significant difference. I find that if I worry about patches appearing it becomes a vicious circle.

  • had raindrop psorises and the magicial cure for me was loads of exerises even wear a plastic bag under your t-shirt. Sweating is the secret, this elimates toxins in your body. Also increase Omega oil in your diet, this is great for your skin. Avoid cigerattes and alcohol, they cause flare ups. And finally lots of sleep try not to stress. positive, peaceful mind will help you manage stress better. You need to get a balance right in your body, dove unscented soap. Cured for 3 years good luck! :)

  • she could have told us what cured her!!!!

  • Don't loose your hope........! :)

  • Super job! 

  • Thanks for this video. This will help a lot of people!

  • Living with psoriasis for 24 yrs covered head-to-toe. Only in the last 5 yrs managed to stay clear thru' uvb narrowband therapy. To keep the psoriasis clear, I use the 9 tube unit once per fortnight. Using UVB Narrowband lamp to me is a convenient home use treatment. Life changing life-time investment i.e. back to playing my favourite sports e.g. racquetball and swimming.

  • ummm...just wondering, but when you have psorasis can you still have kids?

    like I'm afraid that when I get older no one will actually want to have children w/ me....

  • @lalalaloveyouboo100 of course you can still have kids i have psorasis and i get cream from my doctor that helps and also the sun helps. she you should go to ur doctor creams can help

  • @lalalaloveyouboo100 I have it and I had a baby ~ my man loves me for who I am, it doesn't bother him as much as it does me! My baby's skin is clear, and even if it wasn't I'd still be over the moon! Becoming a Mum is the best thing ever...don't let psoriasis make u think its not possible!! Dreams can come true....it won't harm your insides physically, so don't let it mentally! Hope one day u find someone who loves u just the same!

  • I have Psoriasis on my scalp and I scratch a lot! I also have to use a gross shampoo that smells really bad! It's nice to see someone successful who has it too =)

  • Eli Roth from Inglorious Basterds have psoriasis

  • Tjek det her. En sjov og hyggelig komedie om Lars, der har Psoriasis.

  • Thankou my 24 year old son has suddenly got a severe case of psoriasis and it has devasted him ... my wife and I are very very afraid of what could happen if aanyone could help us please tell us how to lighten his pain

  • for me it was caused by over use of antibiotics.

    its also hereditary.

  • I had psoriasis for 9 years and it really was a pain in the ... Luckily I got rid of it though..just last year. I followed the guide on PsoriasisFreeInDays, C0M and it worked great for me. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to get rid of psoriasis!

  • i think its a good thinkg what caridee is doing .i also have psoriasis

  • You are so amazing CariDee.

  • I'm a model too, and I have P too, since I was 8, granite it is not on 70 % of my body, but it still makes it hard for me to do alot of things, I get depressed when ever i touch it. its so awful..

  • I have had since was 5, as well it blocked my hair folicules when was 6 and my hair fell out I was bald until I was10, I am 18 now, I cant even tan becuse it gets worse I cr in the winter because it starts to crack and bleed it hurts everywhere

  • psoriasis sux...

  • Renetemp1---Psoriasis (sore-EYE-ah-sis) is a medical condition that occurs when skin cells grow too quickly. Faulty signals in the immune system cause new skin cells to form in days rather than weeks. The body does not shed these excess skin cells, so the cells pile up on the surface of the skin and lesions form.

  • And many sources believe that vaccinations are one of the most common causes of the disease. I have it.

  • she's a true winner

  • I remember Caridee mentioned on the Tyra Banks show that she get shots to control her psoriasis i just don't know what the medication she get shot up with is called.

  • Get puva treatment and that will be the end of psoriasis

  • Psoriasis is not a skin disease (that is just a symptom) Its cause lies in the intestines. The intestinal walls are thinned, allowing toxins to enter the body. The body gets rid of these toxins through the skin. The intestinal problems are often caused by fungus/yeast. It is best to get rid of the fungus and toxins through dietary measures. For example: Sugars feed the yeast. Meats and milk contains lots of toxins. Raw vegetables heals the body. This is difficult but really helps Regards Rene
  • I think you got it dead on. Thx for this. Where is the source of your information?

  • This is true. I can control my P through diet. Basically you need Alkaline forming foods not acid. Gluten free products are really good for P & slippery elm powder is also very good. I went on a strict gluten, dairy free diet & the P cleared up almost completely after 20 years of moderate to severe P. Dr Pagano's book on P has lots of foods you should eat.

  • I totally agree and understand your point abt Alkaline forming foods, they are the sources to vitality, i havnt reead Paganos book, but really need to get my hands on a copy.

  • Yes I agree i believe this is called Leaky Gut syndrome and can happen to any individual.

  • @Renetemp1 What about wheat products, rice, nuts and most proccesed carbs? I heard the body turns then into sugar.

  • @Renetemp1 What about fruit? I heard that citric fruit was not good but I don't know anymore I'm desperate and I heard that olive oil was really good for the intestines.

  • @Renetemp1 What a load of c**p. Where do you get these loony tunes ideas from? Psoriasis is caused by overactive skin cells, probably as a result of an underlying auto-immune disorder. The scales are not "toxins" coming to the surface - LOL! Dietary choices can help lesson the symptoms , but not because of some link to "toxins" in the food. That's utter bull and you're doing a disservice to people by spreading it.

  • @nojyt Exactly, cant believe people have given it the thumbs up and its at the top of the vid. Was probably him on 8 different accounts. Psoriasis is not caused by the intestines. It is right that some people get good results from gluten and dairy free diets but not for the reasons he has conjured up.

  • @Renetemp1 wow ur smart:)

  • @Renetemp1 That´s a good advice. But diet does not help EVERY psoriasis sufferer. Everyone has to find out what causes HIS psoriasis and reduce it. You can heal psoriasis but not with that stuff what pharma industrie sells you for a huge amount of money. They don´t give a fuck about us psoriasis sufferers. So my advise: find out what causes your psoriasis and try to beat it.

  • I've had psoriasis since I was 7 years old and now, 20 years later, I've also been diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis. I take Methotrexate and Humira injections. My psoriasis is basically nonexistant and my arthritis rarely flares. I really hate giving myself shots but to be able to get up and play with my kids or pull my hair up without people telling me I have sand in my hair is worth the pain of the shot. If you have PsA or just psoriasis, I highly recommend it!

  • I'm 19 and have had psoriasis since I was 12- I've been off and on Methotrexate for almost a year now. Next week- I start Humira.. I am a little scared.

  • my psoriasis gt so bad i cudnt walk so had to be hosplitalised for more thn 2 weeks where they put me on cyclosporin tablets 150mg and within 18 days my skin was perfect like a miracle and since 2 yrs now its been abolutely clear

    relieved to knw that there is somethng out there tht helps i had psoriasis for all my teenage life but whn i hit 20 it went im now nearly 22 and its not back an even if it come back il start the medicines again i recomend cyclosporin 2 psoriasis patients

  • Cyclosporin is an antifungal.

    This makes sense when you understand that Psoriasis is caused by Candida (Candida is a Yeast/Fungus).

    My Psoriasis disappeared after using Lamisil (also antifungal), but reappeared.

    Now I am treating it naturally, and it slowly disappears.

  • i thought psorisis was a immune disorder....

  • @gnarbros auto-immune disease

  • I,m sorry but for some reason to me this seems like a plug for your fame or the Psoriasis Foundation.. Do you have photos for your childhood, to show this as fact rather than a feel good vid?

    You will have to forgive my harshness, i,m just sick of looking for good ways to beat this and running into feel good cures and vids that don't give me any info at all.

    I have psoriasis on my feet, legs, body, arms, hands, head. If i find the cure i will world how to beat it.

  • Have you tried intestinal and liver detoxification? I personally found that after an elimination diet my P is pretty much gone. I never suffered from it severely, and it actually developed after a severe case of the chicken pox. But with anything that shows up on skin, it is a direct correlation to something wrong inside us. There has been a link to acidic foods and P as well as Candida and P. Candida being an overgrowth of yeast caused by stuff like sugar and wheat. Hope some of this helps.

  • why doesn't she announce her cure?

  • Because there is none.

  • @kiefhouse The cure is detox :)

  • i also got it when i was 5 years old now i am 16. i am so happy caridee is doing this. i was going to email tyra banks to ask if i can contact caridee in any way so i can ask her how hers went away. i cant believe i found this video i just kept clicking from video to video its like it was meant to happen caridee is so beautiful. my dream is to be a model and a fashion designer

  • what kind of medicine can i use?? i have it in my scalp and ive gone to aloot of different doctors and nothiings worked ....i really feel bad that my moms been trying really hard and spending aloot of money on medicine and none of it has worked..i am only 14

  • I know how you feel, I'm twenty years old and I've had psoriasis since I was 11, and it's all over my scalp and on my face. No medicine I have ever tried has helped me, only a procedure I follow every day twice a day has helped hide it:

    -Wash and exfoliate my affected areas at least once a day (meaning I remove the dead skin with a special loofah sponge).

    -Apply hydrocortisone cream over the affected area.

    -Apply normal face cream.

    I found that the hydrocortisone cream has helps, but slightly.

  • I have psoriasis too. I had delevoped it when I was around thirty-five and I am now thirty-nine now.

  • raptiva has really serious side effects. watch out.

  • I read that too. Caridee is one of my fav 'top models' though there have been instances where raptiva has caused a brain infection. Very scary stuff! Please do Not stop taking any medication, however, without first consulting one's doctor.

  • OMG she looks so amazing here

  • I love her! She is so sweet

  • DOO GRO HAIR OIL TRUST ME IT GETS RID OF YOUR SCALP PSORIASIS!!!!

    I have had it on my scalp since last september i have used everything!! t gel works but after a day or two it comes back.. Doo Gro completely got rid of it PLEASE spread the word.. its not expensive i got mine from ebay cause you cant get it in Ireland.. take care..

  • hi...may i know the name of the user for the doogro seller on ebay? cos i dont think i can get it in malaysia. does it help in hair growth/?? cos my hair is thinning and i started to have white hair at young age

  • 8- Avoid T/Gel Shampoo as it causes a dizziness for time being.

    Note: I did exercise in the SUN light with and without wearing cloth. But I have noticed wearing cotton cloths during exercise HELPS me ALOT. So naked Sun Bath may cause a problem.

  • 3- No to Silk cloth . Instead prefer Cotton cloth

    4- Try to relax. ( No need of yoga) Just look the bright side of ur life and thankful to GOD.

    Apart from that I'm used to

    5-drink Milk(100% pure form and Organic Milk). So MILK never cause a problem for me.

    6-Also, i DON'T EAT RED MEAT. Prefer HALAL or KOSHER MEAT.

    7- No ALCOHOL

  • Hi,

    I had Psoriasis on most of my body from top to down. I get the rid from it except little bit on my head. In last 20 years I have examined my body behavior,activity and diet and find out the solution for it.

    1- Drink water 8-10 glasses/ day

    2- Sweating is really good. So prefer some exercise or walk.

  • I read somewhere that she is taking a drug called Raptiva - it is a new bio-logic drug which you have to inject yourself. Hope this helps.

  • coal tar works for me too. best thing ever must try :D

  • To do : eating - water 10-12 glasses/day, veggie Meditation Relaxation Long Breathing working in the sun (warm weather is good for psoriasis) labor work is good for psoriasis (eg. digging the ground like a construction labor) To be soaked with sweat is good for psoriasis. Not to do : avoid eating - eel, turtle and seafood using drug or any chemical.. see doctor
  • Sunbathing helps but can't do when covered in it. Worse thing for me now is getting the psoriatic arthrititis I was told I would get. Skin clear at moment cos of two months of coal tar but it'll be back in a month or two. It screws your life up, ruins your career etc. but there are worse illnesses out there.

  • Yeh psoriasis sucks. I've had it for about 20 yrs. Only thing that works for me is coal tar. Methotrexate just makes me ill. UVB and dovonex have worked in the past but don't anymore.

  • i tried that cream but after awhile the effects of the cream deminishes so i need new medication

  • Im doing pretty bad lately, i started to develop psoriasis around 12 years old now its getting worse, its spreading around my entire body i cant stop it. What should i do to prevent this?

  • Ok, yeah. Why not disclose the medicine she takes to totally clear her skin? Copyright infringement or something? Way to help without helping!

  • I'm 46 years old and have it 95% over my body.... I have it for 25 years.... My problem is that it's hard for me to find a Derm.... My family doctor is doing the best he can.... He can only get so much medicines.. So right now the only thing I'm on methotrexate... It helps some but not a lot... Medicaid will not pay for medicine like Enbrel or the others... I just keep trying to live with it but it's hard but, I do and have been for 25 years.. I glad that other can get the help they need.

  • Try vanos 0.1% it comes in a tube i used it where it is shown the most. its not enough to clear all the body but it helps u feel better about ur self if u get a chance to use the enbrel its awsome but keep trying and use that cream it will help

  • what kind of psoriasis did you have? i use elocon but it doesnt work well. how long does it take for this vanos to work?

  • I have it on my head! just on my head...thx my doctors who gave me very good medicaments!

  • i have it on my foot.

    :(

    i can't wear certain shoes!

    but i am happy that it is only on my foot. my mom has it on like 90% of her body.

  • I had that on my elbows. it looks weird.

  • Enbrel works pretty good as well. As long you follow as directed.

  • hydrocortisone cream helps too.

  • Scalpicin for the scalp over the counter works. Singulair medication along with lovasttin medication. Aveeno body wash for itchy skin helps too along with a bath every few days. Too much light makes it worse.

  • Only thing I found to cure up my psoriasis is

    Dovonex (calcipotriene) is a synthetic, activated form of vitamin D3

    and

    Flocinanide

    Anything else is prety much bullshit.

  • I don't mean to offend anyone for this matter I'm just putting my own 2 cents that's all b/c I'm a optimistic/pessimistic person. I see the HOPE side and the REALITY side...either way both sides want a cure

  • meaning that if "they" found ways for our skin to go into remission phase, then they also have a drug that can keep it that way for good, but...why stop there? As long we're satisfied of being clear of P for a month or longer than no being cleared at all..."why should we give out the cure medicine? It's a double edge sword, we get money they get clear skin for the time being"...Seriously THINK about it...but I do hope a cure will be found or better yet be revealed honestly

  • Anthrax was spreading fast by contact and airborne, if one person had it, the next 20 would be infected instantly, that's why "they" realized this is serious and found a cure. As for Cancer, AIDS/HIV, P, etc,...these are conditions that can be repetitive for pharmaceutical companies to constantly create and market their drugs making the cash flow b/c it'll never end. Seriously, all of us found medicines that worked...but yet we keep buying them b/c it can only last for so long, but it WORKS

  • I've been diagnosed with psoriasis since I was 13...I hope as well there will be a cure for P someday near future but what 725ecx has commented does have a good point b/c in an argument there's always two sides...we are profits not patients. Also it's stated that about 7.3 million people in U.S. has P out of total U.S. population 303,824,643, that's like 7 cents out of $100 bill which could be spared.

    When Anthrax was born within the same year they had a cure...b/c it was going to be epidemic

  • ok well sorry to (725ecx) that your life is perfect and you dont have to live with psoriases.. but if you new how hard it is.. and whats its like to everyday where long sleaves and long pants in boiling hot weather just because you no you HAVE to cover it or people will make nast remarks.. then maybe youd understand why we want to be greedy and try and cure it.. its not easy living with it.. we deserve to find a cure, its taking my life away and ill never be normal. you dont know how that feels!

  • Forgive me for being too pragmatic, but-

    The pharmaceutical companies that produce psoria$i$ medication$ profit hundreds of millions of dollars every year. If an effective, universal cure was developed and marketed, all that money goes away- Think about it-

    In the 60's & 70's it was a "skin disease".

    In the 80's & 90's, an "incurable skin condition".

    Now, they're claiming it's an "auto-immune disease".

    There's one condition that's even more difficult to cure.

    Greed.

  • i have a rash that looks like a ringworm...

    can you describe the difference between psoriasis and ringworm???..now, my face had it...its very itchy..it is elevated and red..yellow fluid came out...pls. answer me....

    thanks!!!

  • I use Humira and it has totally cleared me up. I take it twice a month and the results are awesome.

  • how much - Enbrel is thousands of dollars and my mother's insurance won't pay. Remicade - cost thousands - insurance won't pay. some meds makes her sugar go sky high so she can't take it. AAAAAHHHHHHHhh!!!!!!!!

  • Humira is cheaper than enbrel. I was taking enbrel every week where as I take the Humira twice a month. Humira is far more effective than enbrel with less sides. If your covered by your moms insursnce you should be able to receive these medications. They can't deny you for existing conditions. I hope hope it works out for you cause I know how it feels.

  • humirA'S SIDE AFFECTS ARE TOO MUCH FOR MY MOM - SHE HAS DIABETES.

  • what "medicine" is caridee talking about that she takes?

  • the only medicine I've ever had have been creams and vitamin D and UV treatment, but if there's any other kind I'd would love to know.

  • if she really cared about us, she should have told us. I am sure it something she can afford and we can't. :(

  • Hey.

    i dont have the sickness myself, but i do know that she uses something called Raptiva, it was her doctor who recommended it.

    She injectes herself once a week.

    I read it on Wikipedia.

  • the supplement I sell is starting to help my psoriasis  but its very expensive

  • I have it and i dont know how to get raid of it

  • i bought a doctor recommended over the counter medicine called Psoriasin gel to treat the psoriasis on the bottoms of my feet and i've been using it for about a two weeks now and it is definately working for me and i hope it works for you

  • i get tonsilitus a fuck lot n i had it really bad a few months ago n about a month after i had it i started being covered in psoriasis, if i get my tonsils out will that make it go?

    im only 17 and its ruining me =[

  • no. removing your tonsils will not get rid of your psoriasis. You really should go speak to a doctor. Don't stress yourself about it. Easier said than done i know but stress will make it worse.

  • really? ah gayyyy =[

    nah the doctors are no help man

    okay thanks anyways though [=

    x

  • love caridee, she's so believable and encouaging

  • I am a registered nurse and have psoriasis psoriatic arthritis. My psoriasis started when I was 17 and I lived with it until I was 32. To make a long story short, I take Enbrel injections, 25mg, twice a week and it has cured my psoriasis 100% and really helps the arthritis part of it as well. Creams never did help really. I tried methotrexate first but it is basically useless, especially when you compare it to Enbrel or other TNF inhibitors.

  • but what is that doing to the rest of your body I know I feel like I would do anything to cure it but taking a drug only helps the sypmtoms not the cause the supplement I sell seems to be helping and its only been 4 days but it is very expensive

  • the things we take for granted

  • mine is because of my tonsils so im gonna get them out...

  • Help me,

    I have psoriasis, why medicament natural know you?

  • dermazinc is effective for me

  • love u caridee

  • Remicade is the best medication out there for severe plaque psoriasis. I was head to toe 90% covered. Now, I'm for the most part clear. My legs are stubborn though. I think it's because of my weight to medication doe ratio. not sure though.

  • Avoid:

    - dairy

    - meat

    - sugar

    - nightshades

    - white flour

    - shellfish

    - alcohol

  • there is this thing out there called remacaide and it works for psoriasis i use it to get rid of the psoriasis and now my body is clear you do need to have health insurance because if you don't the treatments are over 4,000 dollars but trust me it works i had it all over my body from head to tow and now i have nothing its a IV they give you and its like a two hour treatment but worth it again its called remacaide

  • omg where can i get this stuff! i wanna feel beautiful like cardiee and i know i am but i never tell anyone that i have it cause it tears me apart when people call u names like disease freak or cheeta! and it bites hard.

  • See your doctor!

  • no one bullies me about it. they must want to live

  • I got an amazing result for my psoriasis from a herbal drink called Matol.

    I got it from matoluk dotcom. They only supply the UK and Europe though.

  • I'm 46 years old and have had psoriasis for the last 22 years.... It's had to get a doctor where I am because a lot of doctors here don't take medicaid... So my family doctor has giving me a pill called methotrexate and it works some but I still have it over 95% of my body.... I have lived with it and will continue until someone finds a cure... And yes it is hard when people look at you funny and ask stupid questions but I've learned to give them answers that confuse them and leave them stupid..

  • I went to a doctor today and he put me on methotrexate too. Along with that I am on a cream for my face and a spray for the rest of my body. I hope it works. I'm sorry it didn't work for you. I have had it for 15 years and it has destroyed my life. I heard there is a shot you can get too. I was told that is the next step if the methotrexate doesn't work. I totaly know how you feel xenafan33 and hope you find something to cure this bitch of a skin prob.

  • yeah i used to take methotrexate as well but i didnt like the fact that i had to take a blood test every month to make sure my liver was still ok but yah it did work well for me exept the day after where i would feel like shit.. i now take a topical cream called dovenex and it clears almost over night

  • This is how i know americans are fuckin bastards - kiking her out a pool cus they frt she was gna spreas it i mean WTF.. im from england. had Psoriasis for bout 8-9 years and ive never once in my life been bullied about it.

  • lucky you,most people are bullied about it,cuz people just don't know what psoriasis is,what is actually very stupid.

    i do believe there is a cure out there,but no one wants to treat people with it,cuz most doctors wouldn't have anything to do any more,it's easier this way for them,to get money and to mess up with you,i hate when doctors say-you can live with that,you ain't gonna die-of course people who have it can live with it,but it's not an easy or nice life at all

  • I love her - she's so encouraging and real. I LOVE YOU CARIDEE!!!!

    I have this shit on my breasts! I know EXACTLY what she means. IT SUCKS!!!

    I wish I could afford those damn injections! They're inSANELY expensive. I have to use the cheap stuff sulfasalazine (sp??) and celebrex.... I have the arthritis too.

  • Kia-ora. To all. An Alkaline diet helped me and it WILL help you too. Don't be suckered into being a guinea pig for the thieving corporate pharmaceutical industry, it will in the long run only make things worse and wont address, only contribute to, the problem of us living in discord with the universe - the creator.

  • I hope you all can look at your diets/lifestyles and see room for improvement.

    There is a Water Alkalizer on the market called the Jupiter Alphion which the importance of owning one can not be understated.

    Be strong and good luck!

  • You have to concentrate on cleaning your insides out. not applying and injecting "magic" potions or creams. Anyways look into it and take from it all that you can.

  • look into having a Live blood viewing so you can see what your blood cells are living amongst you may be very surprised and encouraged.

  • I enjoyed your honest personal approach -- important to have a role model like you. Hope you enjoy my funny Psoriasis video: Funny, You Don't Look Like Ben Franklin.

    Hugs 2 U Dr. Sue

  • i have psoriais since i was about 9 ive lived with it, and you know what i hate it, i know exactly what she means about the pool issue, i got bullied at school, and im scared to go swimming, im supposed 2 be going on holiday in devon with my boyfriend and my family, and obv we will go swimming, im just thinking shorts and t-shirts, and i said to my boyfriend ill prob end up crying and never talk to him again if he takes the mick:(

  • I've had Psoriasis for 31 years all over my body and I was coned to going to the Dead sea by adds. The dead sea does nothing for your Psoriasis, all it does do is make your body sting with pain if you have splits in your skin. Dead sea salt and mud might be good for some things but not for Psoriasis its all a big con and I have met other people that have spent months there and they will tell you the same thing. I have also lot jobs because of this crap.There is a cure if you die you are cured.

  • Guys with psoriasis. Try out the new "Methatrexate". Really good medicine. My psoriasis was gone just 2 months later. I got small psoriasis dots all over my body, and all was gone.

    Try it!

  • hi there people who ever is reading could they advise any ays to help ease the burning sensation of the skin especially when it is warm
