My dermatologist has moved out of the state, so I have an appointment with my new doc on the 22nd. I'm not quite sure if I would be a candidate for systemic treatment, but I definitely think I am going to ask about it. Has anyone else experience with this type of treatment?

Also, I have been visiting the tanning salon. I'm aware that UVB is more effective than UVA for psoriasis, but most of the light I get at the tanning salon is UVA. Anyone with experiences using phototherapy treatment? I was doing some research online about the various home units available. Many are very large pieces of equipment or require special electrical hook ups. Daavlin has a small hand held unit that looks interesting. Also on the list to ask the new doc!

FYI For my fellow members with psoriasis, the National Psoriasis Foundation is a wonderful source of information.
