putting vioxx on the market again would be a crime. Yes people can make their own decision, but with something lethal like this it is a crime. Would we think of putting cocaine on the market and let people make up their minds on their own? I think not! Why can’t the government be as strict with vioxx and similar drugs(celebrex, bextra) as they are with cocaine? I took vioxx, celebrex and the doc wanted me to try bextra. At that point I totally refused any meds. I was sick all the time, had terrible chest pains and was told politely by the doc that my body will adjust to it and it wil ...

I am so glad that someone is doing something finally about these medications. My doctor thought I was nuts when he put me on vioxx(the miracle drug) and I complained about the constant chest pains I was having. I felt sick all the time and no relief was insight. I finally took myself off of the vioxx and told the doctor I was feeling better. Because I’m allergic to a lot of medication, he put me on celebrex. Well the same thing happened only worse this time. I told him that these meds were not good and had heard from a few people similar symptoms. I refused to take any more of these ...

HI. I’m new to this forum, but thought I would try to lend some information and my own thoughts. I have been propetic since a very young child. At the age of 5, I dreamed of my future husband. At the time I didn’t know that, the dream was dark and scary, but it happened exactly as I dreamed. Later on in life I was so occupied with my own life, raising a family that I paid no mind to several other dreams. I did dream of the break up of my marriage. Again it happened as I dreamed. After our break up, one night having lived alone for a few years I had a very terrifying nightmare. I dr ...

Wow! I used to think I was the only one. Since my accident 3 years ago, I only sleep really good for 2 hours. Then I am up all night, tossing and turning, going to the bathroom, turn the tv on in hopes it will put me to sleep, play music for the same reason, all else fails go into my office and play a few puter games...the hum of the PC makes me sleepy...then back to bed, but still only sleep for 15 minutes at a time...total sleep for the night a whole whopping 3 hours...been doing this for 3 years. At times my body feels like I’ll have a total physical & mental collapse. I might cras ...

I believe you’ve got it. Yes, DNA is an intragel part of this but anyone with the gene is not necessarily active with psoarsis. I am the baby of six children. 3 boys 3 girls. I have one sister and one brother that has active psoarsis. the remaining siblings do not. Altho they have the genetic makeup of it, it is not visibly present to them. On the other hand my one sister who doesn’t have active psoarsis has 3 daughters, all of which do. It appears that it may skip a generation or some segments of people within the same family. I have 3 biological children and none of them have ev ...

HI...glad to hear of your success...I have the condition too. I had noticed that when I walked(3-6 miles per day) ate healther,was not stressed, I improved greatly. Now that i am disabled..I don’t walk, try to eat healthy, and of course all stressed out all the time...the condition is horrible. Well as soon as I am able to turn my life around...hopefully the condition will too....Good luck with your regimen. Sounds like a keeper! Dr. Grace L   [End]

HI.. the fact that the neoporin made it worse, indicates that it is a form of dermatitis..psoarisis ,ecezuma, etc. ...I would have a doctor check it out and if it doesn’t respond to anit bactierial medication ...it is definitely a dermatitis. Had you injured your skin in that area before this happened? Please let me know. Good luck   [End]

Thank you for your imput. I can appreciate you not believing me. but the fact remains that scientific studies on human DNA has shown that in fact a gene is the cause. There are several triggers. To some it is stress. To some it is foods. To some it is hormonal. No two people are the same therefore no 2 people will react to the problem in the same way. Why do you think some of these treatments work form some and not for others? Precisely! We are all made of different DNA structure. The immune system does not cause it. The cause is already the DNA structure.I do believe that alleviati ...

You are so right! The whole medical profession is one big lie! But don’t ever think that diet is the cure. No! Don’t be fooled again. This condition is totally genetic. It is not a disease that you can flush out of your system. It is DNA. There are triggers from environment, diet, stress, and trauma/injury that can cause outbreaks. I should know. REsearched many things, taken almost all precriptions & OTC medications there are in the world. The way to alleviate the symptoms (not cure) is to go natural. Yes dieting will have an effect on it. Watch out what you eat. Exercise, ge ...

HI..there is no such thing as seasonal psoarsis. It’s genetic. But the seasons can trigger a response. Mine gets really terrible in the winter due to the dryness in the air(in and out of bldgs and home). I need to mosturize more during the winter months. In the summer I clear up great. The UV rays from the sun help me a lot and clear me up almost 50%. My body is about 90% covered and has been since birth. I have sporatic clearing up episodes tho. There is so much out there now since I was born, keep researching. I do. and I’ve had it for 58 out of 58 years of age. Good luck   [End]

This is a very good suggestion. Yes digestion or lack of proper digestion is the root of all body evils. Unfortunately Psoarisis is not one of them. It is purely a genetic mutation of the immune system. I have had 58 years worth out of my 58 years of age. It is not a disease but rather a genetic disorder. The immune system sends signals because of this genetic mutation, to the skin and believes that it needs to defend itself against itself ..hence the build up of the plaques. Once it tries to get rid of itself(and all normal people get rid of dead skin cells everyday), people with t ...

No offense to Cayce, but psoarisis is not from the thinning of the intestinal wall. Yes some people over a period of time may develop this but psoarisis is a genetic disorder. Your genes carry a mutation that causes your immune system to be triggered by external forces such as stress or injury or trauma. Your body is fooled into thinking that the immune system needs to defend itself from something harmful. Therefore, your body repells the natural order of cellular dispursion. That is your body gets rid of it’s dead skin cells at a normal rate every day. People with psoarisis have a g ...

HI. I believe the tie between psoarsis and cancer is the fact that many people use UV rays to help the poarisis which inturn can cause skin cancer. Smoking attributes to the cancer but the psoarsis itself does not cause cancer or turn into cancer on its own. Psoarisis is a genetic (completely hereditary) disorder. I know because I have had it from birth. 58 out of my 58 years. It has not turned to cancer on me.(knock on wood, lol). I don’t smoke (but did as a teenager) quit after 4 years.I haven’t smoked in over 40 years. I have the occasional drink. 3 or 4 per week. I believe eve ...

Hi. I have had psoriasis for 58 out of my 58 years. I don’t have cancer , even tho I have had many tumors of which were benign. I also have cystic acne..so that’s were the tumors develop from. I have never heard of psoriasis turning into cancer. I think everyone makes that conclusion since some people use ultraviolet ray treatment for psoriasis and develop skin cancer from the UV rays. As far as my research goes I have never heard of the connection between psoriasis and cancer. Hope that helps dispell some of your worries.   [End]

I used to be a milk drinker as a child but have not had any in about 40 years. My psoriasis is quite extensive and the milk nor the lack of milk has had any effect on it either positive or negative. As a child, we only had unpasturized milk. Lived in the country and didn’t buy milk form vendors.   [End]

HI. thanks for the information. I was helpful. I continually search for any hints that may help with my psoriasis. I am 58 and was born with it, as with everyone else. It is a genetic disorder. I hate the term disease, because you do not catch it from others. You are born with the gene that has this characteristic. Anyways, I have battled this for 58 years. Tried every medication (both prescription and over the counter) that there is available. As a child my mother would use tar soap and vaseline. Not much help but that was all that was available back in the 40’s & 50’s. Today I ...
