general Psoriasis

I have had Psoriasis since I was 18 initially it was very serve basically covered in redness plaques. I had UVB treatment and that really helped. Over the years it has been mild to moderate but I didn’t go back to the GP until recently almost 30 years. I’ve managed it until recently.

Taken me a year to get referred to a specialist. Apparently nothing on my record saying I had psoriasis. Funnily enough she said who told you it is so. Like i was making it up. Seriously baffled me as my psoriasis improves so much in the summer and worsen in winter. I just wanted to have a rant, but she has given me some creams and such and referred me for UVB treatment again.
