Customer Review: Wanted this to work!
Summary: 3 Stars
About 9 mos ago I tried Psoriasin gel to try to help get rid of the psoriasis I developed about a year ago. I'm willing to try just about anything, but I don't want to go on biologicals - I'm so afraid of them since they wipe out your immune system. I bought Psoriasin hoping it would work, but unfortunately, for me it didn't. I initially tried the vanishing gel. I'm used to using a strong prescription ointment, and hoped the gel wouldn't feel sticky. It wasn't too bad - a bit tacky, and had a not so pleasant smell - so using it wasn't too bad.
I developed psoriasis as a teenager, and at that time had it really bad. I'm sure anxiety influences how badly one is affected because I developed it after a major trauma in my life that left me scared, anxious, and feeling every nerve in my body. At that time the major treatments for psoriasis was actual coal tar with an occlusive dressing, and photo therapy - both of which I did. Messy, time consuming, and even more anxiety producing! Yuk!
As years went on, and I got better dealing with my anxiety, the psoriasis got so much better that I didn't use any treatment whatsoever. Then all of a sudden, last year it reappeared with a vengence after going on vacation and using a hot tub. There was nothing else I did differently, and no major traumas - so the only thing I could associate it with was the hot tub. Funny thing, the U of Michigan was doing a genetic study on psoriasis and I got involved a couple of months before it got bad again. I sent in the bloodwork and all the papers, as well as pictures, and then all of a sudden ... it hit me again. Bleh! It's been bad for about a year now. My doctor wants me to go on biologicals, and thankfully the dermatologist didn't because of the danger to my liver. So I was searching for something. One thing that worked really well for me several years ago when I had a flare was taking Cymbalta - it has a major anxiety component in it, and it worked SO well, but not this time. Drat!
Our daughter also has psoriasis, and out of desparation, for her - since she's a sensitive teen, I found that sometimes homeopathis sulpher works. Within 2 weeks she was pretty much clear, but it didn't work for me. Nor did zinc, the regimin in a book on psoriasis started to work, and then didn't, and a special soap I bought also didn't work. So, I'm back to square 1, and once again, the search is on.
