My husband has CIDP, and is undergoing IVIG treatment. It's very helpful with his balance, and some pain issues.

But for the past few years, his psoriasis is flaring up big time. I know it's auto-immune. We've tried everything. Clobetasol. Vitamin A D & E, Vitamin E alone. Ointments, etc.

EVERYTHING!!!

I went on Ebay and just typed in Psoriasis creams and holy moly, the choices are all over the place.

If any of you have psoriasis, have you found ANYTHING that helps with the lesions. Alan has it really bad on his elbos and on his calves. Now it's coming on his foot, not the bottom, on the back of the upper foot. Never saw such redness in my life.

After I apply the Vitamin E, or anything else, of course the redness dissipates, and all is well. We don't use any perfumes, I'm careful with laundry detergent. He obviously has SOMETHING going on in his body that sets off these triggers.

The stuff behind his ears cleared up, The stuff between his eyebrows cleared up. But the stuff on his arms and elbows, well, it's spreading. I have no idea why.

He wants to buy something off the Rebuilder Website called Silver Cream. He got a video on this.

Anybody hear of this??

Any help would be much appreciated.

And if you are wondering why I'm writing this instead of him??

That's the way it is. Always has and Always will be.

Thanks much.

you can try using desoximetasone USP 0.25% cream. It is very expensive a 60g tube is around $150 and prescription only. You can also try petroleu jelly (vaseline) from any drugstore for a few$ no prescription needed. The dermatologist in grave cases put patient in a ultraviolet chamber. Maybe staying in the sun will help.
Good luck![ U][/U]
