My life with Psoriasis

Started with psoriasis in my hairline as a teenager, that was the only plave it was until i was 26 when it started onn my eyebrow. Within 12 months i was 50% covered. Age 30 and i was 80% covered. I tried muliple sessions of light therapy, 13 weeks of everyday treatment at the hospital ( that didn't clear my skin but it did dye me purple!!) . I moved to Scotland and had endless rounds again of light therapy, i have tried every cream that is out there!!
