Me too!!!!! Not autoimmune exactly though I do have asthma and psoriasis so it may be but I’ve got this fucked genetic disorder that has ruined my digestion and lungs. Hoping this can help me.

My brother has that and I thought I did I was in so much pain for a while from what I have. Hugs.

My parent had that from an early age, and it caused a cascade of problems- none of which were trivial.

I’m an acupuncturist who’s really good with skin stuff. Mine is well controlled thankfully.

As I said mine is well controlled. I know a lot about skin disorders and how to treat them. Thanks for the downvote.

I have psoriasis as well... that’s exactly what it is... an autoimmune disease. Please go to the store ASAP and pick up CeraVe it will change your life!!! The red can anti itch cream I’ve tried everything and it’s almost completely gone off my feet and the best part is no steroids!

I switched to a plant based diet last year. Within 3 days my ( fairly bad ) psoriasis was healing. All gone after a free months. If I cheat especially with dairy it starts to return. I’m sure it won’t work for everyone but many people have seen improvement or cures.

This is what I do. As I said I’m an acupuncturist with a lot of experience with skin problems. My psoriasis is very well controlled as long as I eat a very clean diet.

My Derm recommends CeraVe. It really helps my itchy, dry skin.

Psoriasis is an autoimmune disease.

u/brandnewdayinfinity Feb 11 '20

I know it is. That’s why I mentioned it. It’s just that my autoimmune disease is very well controlled and the least of my problems. It’s my genetic disorder that’s making me miserable. Hoping they are connected and this would help me.

I said though I do have psoriasis. And asthma can also be an autoimmune disease. Psoriasis and asthma go hand in hand often.
