Lightbulb my hubby went to the dermatologist today

to check for skin cancer (he has an area on one ear that flames up, and she thought it was the psoriasis).. and
got an RX for Dovonex. The doctor said his psoriasis is mild
but didn't like his elbow.

But then our insurance refused it (I looked it up online), so we had to get a prior authorization, for it. This is the mail away Medco.

The doctor said she is getting good results in psoriasis that is not severe with it.

He is also to use Aquaphor ointment on it.

I'll let you know in September how it worked. We won't even receive it for two weeks!

Just about everyone with psoriasis gets it on the elbows.
