TLDR: I started methotrexate yesterday. wish me luck. How was your experience?
Hi guys, I always had psoriasis but they were always small patches at the back of my ears or on my leg. When I started grad studies and moved to Canada, it started to spread like crazy. and grad studies are basically pure form of stress
Sun always help me but I dont get so much here. I tried natural methods like diets, but I was 6-month consistent. I cut down alcohol, spicy foods etc. but no help. You probably know about steroid creams, they are amazing as short term solution, but P strikes even harder when you are desensitized or stop using.
I always wanted biologics like skyrizi, but my derm told me that I need to try cheap stuff first to qualify for insurance. I tried light therapy and hated it. I could not sleep at nights because of burns and itching. even with low dose, it was terrible for me, never going back to that.
My derm prescribed methotrexate, I just did not have the balls to take them. But my P recently jumped to my face.
That is the story, wish me luck. I will post after pictures later.
