Does anybody out there know anything about psoriasis? I got a raging case around the time I spent over a week in partial hospital, thanks to job stress (mid to late November). I couldn't get in to see a dermatologist till the end of December. He gave me all these expensive creams and ointments, which I used, which worked great. Except that now, having started a new job, plus still working a few hours a week at my old one, plus teaching on the side, I'm horribly stressed again, and it's all coming back. Same places, same stuff.

What I want to know is, once you get psoriasis, does it ever go away, or does it just go into remission? I was doing really well, and then BOOM, here I go again and I don't see the derm again till mid-April.

I can't believe all the stuff your body can produce under stress! I must really need to mellow out.
