Quick question: can someone living with psoriasis actually donate blood?

Walter Thompson said:Has anyone here heard about those once-a-year injections? They cost roughly $67. If you know anything, let me know.
Thanks

Maybe they're like that stuff they give you in the military to boost your immune system.
Supposedly, it can make a huge difference for an entire year.

I used to be a heavy sleeper too, back before I joined the Army. Once I got out, it was just stupid—waking up at 5 AM with nowhere to go while everyone else is still passed out...

Alright, let me introduce myself... I'm George Fisher11 🙂 dealing with psoriasis,

unfortunately...
I picked this up back in '91 during the war when I was 20, but it hasn't spread too bad, so I can mostly hide it. I usually manage it with some Belosalic cream and lotion, but not constantly—just after I shower.
The cool thing is you can just use plain water; you just have to soak it well and then scrub.
I heard this guy at a bar claim he rubbed his flare-ups with water every single day and it cleared right up. Who knows if there's any truth to that...

Don't know if there's any truth to it, but it’s nice for someone dealing with psoriasis to hear they might be spared from that.

A friend's mom had psoriasis, then it suddenly cleared up, and right after that, she got cancer and passed away...
So no, we aren't spared...👎
