Yes that’s true, I hope u find something that works for u :)

Once your clear, try staying clear with diet and lifestyle changes first before experimenting with meds.

I had the same experience Amanda. While doing light therapy my derm has said she wanted me to try the biologic injections. I didn't know much about them at the time. All I knew was she said it would weaken my immune system. That was enough for me to know that it wasn't for me. From what I have learned here, many people have been on biologics with no side effects, which is great. Perhaps give an elimination diet a shot, if you are still unsure of the meds after researching them. The results can really be life changing :)

So do you think light therapy works at all?
If so why would you need medication during or after?

I'm going to try Kombucha and Kefir now. And seeing skin specialist on Tuesday. Can't wait to see what the verdict is and then take it from there. So tired of the itching and the pain.

It worked a little for me Jen, but not a whole lot. Great to hear you're starting Kombucha and Kefir. I have made kombucha before, it is tasty! I need to get my hands on another starter and get brewing again. Would love to try Steve's ideas. Good luck with the specialist on Tuesday!

Thanks Michelle
So tired of trying different things that don't really work. Bit down atm...

I am sorry to hear that Jen, I understand those feelings completely. It can be so trying and discouraging trying so many different things. I have been using an Omega 3-high epa oil for about 4 months now. I feel my skin and nails so much stronger and healthier. Have you ever experimented with dietary changes? It has really helped me a lot. Hope you are feeling better soon!

Thanks Michelle I'm seeing skin specialist on Tuesday. See what they recommend

Good Luck!! :D

Thanks guys. The light treatment is working a little bit but not treating the scalp, where I have it worst :( and now my nails have started.:(

It's a long old road with light treatment isn't it! I think for many people the light treatment takes symptoms away, but then it can return once the treatment is over. Sometimes very fast, sometimes not so fast... Perhaps you could use the light therapy to get it under control and then think about some longer term changes like diet, exercise / movement, bringing down your inflammation.

When I had light treatment I was told it doesn't do anything for your scalp. Have a treatment plan for when you come off the light treatment, mine flared up incredibly quick after I finished the light treatment sessions. But it was great while it lasted! I was mostly clear and I felt great!
