Skin scrapes

[malada]

Last week my dermatologist took a biopsy just to double check that my psoriasis really is psoriasis and not some other flaking, red, itchy, scaly skin disorder. They were gentle and careful and it hardly hurt at all. I was nervous about it because hurts can push me into a seizure.

Today they'll pull the stitches and maybe have a diagnosis from the biopsy. My psoriasis seems to be resistant to almost all medications they've tried. Decades ago I had full body light therapy which cleared me completely... but the doctor didn't like using it. He retired abruptly and full body light therapy has been hard to find locally.

Maybe they'll have some answers soon. Meanwhile, I've applied to another dermatologist who might have light therapy. We'll see.
