Awe, Sal, that bites. Sorry you have to deal with that on top of it all. I have no idea how to make it go away, but I sure can help ya' feel a little better.
What'll it be? ![]() *googling webtender for ideas* Hey, Sal, if your hand itches, does that mean you seriously need to go get a lottery ticket?

Hi, I am a fellow psoriasis sufferer. Taclomex has been the best ointment for me. It is EXPENSIVE!!!!!! With my insurance it is $75.00. Without insurance I would be paying $325.00 My doc does have a $25 coupon that that can be used if you don't have insurance. Whoopee. My worst is on my scalp and an area on my back. The last time I was in he injected them with cortisone. I don't know how you effectivly treat the hands. Good luck

Sally, I have plantar palmar pustural psoriasis, (hands and feet with blisters) it is the hardest type to treat. The only thing I have found that makes it go away is hormone replacement. I was on this for about 3 years and it totally cleared during that time.
Another thing that does seem to help some is tanning. All the creams and drugs never seemed to do a thing for me. One more thing that seems to help is if you cover it for a few days, but this only helps for a few days before it rears it's ugly head again. It's a flustrating disease! Pat |

I guess your psoriasis is completely different than mine. It's a wierd disease. I have different psoriasis on my back than whats under my arm pits. If I did it right, this is the first time in all the years I have been on this forum or over on Brain Talk that I have done a 'quote"!!!! If I didn't do it right, sorry If |

YIKES!!! Sorry about your new yucko's Sally...
I have added another autoimmune prob to my list this yr too... I started out itching and thought I had hives.... After 3 different Dr's ... I was dx'd w/Dermatographism, which shows itself in welts when something scratches or rubs against my skin. I take RX antihistamines at timed intervals or I would be one big red blotch... The itching was just about to drive me outta the last little bit of mind I have left... The Dr told me to keep Aquaphilic cream on my skin, which also helps along w/Hydrocortisone cream when it's real bad.... take care.... ![]() ![]() A friend of mine has psoriasis and it drives her crazy!!!!! I really feel for ya!
