I have just added a couple of pics of my hands to my album, not actually got any of my feet but they look very similar to my hands. whenever I have a bath or shower now my feet peel really badly, sheets of skin come off and my husband has to cut them off ...disgusting I know...you will also notice in a lot of my pictures as I put them in my album that I wear white gloves 95% of the time, as my hands are a) a disgusting mess and I am embarrassed to be seen out with them lol and b) they are so sore I can't touch anything with my bare skin.
I have over the years eliminated a number of foods that I find irritate it, mostly dairy, I do have the odd slip and it probably doesn't help...I love cheese for instance and I know it's a trigger but occasionally I can get away with it if I have just a little bit, but that is rare for me and I spose I should really dig deeper as there must be other triggers. This is by far the worst my hands have been since before xmas ....I really wish i could take the tablets as the doctor prescribed them but as I said the side effects are too bad...as within 5 days of me starting them my hands and feet completely cleared up and yes I have tried taking them and letting it clear then stopping for a while but the periods of psoriasis free time have gotten less and less ...but like I said if I can beat it I will and I am not going to give up trying xxx
