Psoriasis cleared,NSV?

I've suffered from this as well since I was 6 (now 49). People just don't understand how it can impact every aspect of your life. Unfortunately, changing my diet hasn't made a bit of difference in my condition. It's been pretty mild for the last few years now, but I still flare in the fall and winter. I have read many articles that claim that many people find relief, and sometimes even remission, through diet changes and quitting smoking or alcohol. So congrats on your NSV! It's a great feeling to be free of it. Best of luck in the future!

Great News! I know how much it can impact on your lifestyle. I suffered from Eczema as a kid, and that has pretty much cleared up although i get the occasional flare up, however last year I developed Psoriasis on my palm and I felt very self conscious about it, sometimes friends who first noticed, would say things like 'woah, what happened to your hand' and it just made me more self conscious. Unfortunately there aren't many ways to cover your hands without looking like a MJ impersonator!!
I went to see a nutritionist, not just for the psoriasis, but general health and wellbeing, and she recommended cutting out dairy and wheat (as advise for the psoriasis), so I did this, and used the cream she sold me and nothing happened, still the same. I persisted with the soy milk, no bread etc, all of the fish oil tablets etc. and still nothing!
Come Christmas time, I slowly started introducing the things I had cut out of my diet, and it just slowly cleared up. I am now getting my finger prints back, and the lines on my palm and you can only see a bit of scarring. I’m hoping it’s not just the summer heat/vitamin D that has helped, but a general clean up of my diet that has helped.

Not the same thing at all, but I've suffered from sever whole-body eczema for many years. I've used the harshest topical steroids available, and even needed the pills, though it never really helped. Now that I eat better and take better care of myself I rarely need the steroids. It certainly pays to be good to yourself.

I'm jealous. NOTHING affects my psoriasis. Not diet, not meds, nothing. It's an auto-immune disorder and I have a couple other auto-immune disorders too. I'm just a mess LOL. The upside for me is that mine isn't too bad. I have it on my elbows, one palm, my scalp, ears, and one eyelid. The elbows are the most noticeable thing.

I wish mine would clear up a bit, I've had it since I was a teenager on my elbows and knees, but in the past couple of years it has spread somewhat up my arms as well, I have been at my heaviest recently so can only hope that losing weight helps it! I cant find any creams that help it at all, they make it slightly softer but nothing actually takes it away...complete pain in the *kitten*!

Wow! That is great to hear! My daughter was diagnosed at 7 (she is now only 8). She only has a problem on her scalp and behind her ears (they are calling that eczema or a cross between the two). I feel so bad for her. I would really like to treat it naturally but she is a typical kid and veggies are yucky! I am so glad to hear you say this though. We are making steps for a healthier lifestyle overall so hopefully these changes will help! Any additional tips?

By the way I am very happy for you! That is a HUGE NSV!! I am soooo glad you shared! Thanks.

I can totally understand,okay I have this cream that added extra help,i got it at a store that sells natural stuff,but maybe you can google it, this cream added alot of help and was about 15 dollars,its called Gentamicina+Betametasona+Clotrimazol Crema,i really hope you can find it online..

Awesome! I will definitely look that up! $15 is our copay for the derm. I only took her once. They gave her stuff that helped but that included that tar shampoo that scares me! So I have been hesitant to take her back. Ugh. They say this is hereditary but we aren't sure where it came from!
