REPLY to me from FOOT doctor!!!

[barbaranoela]

yup---when I say I have been covered from top of head to bottom of feet--I lie not
Today I went to have the toe nail checked again--
He saw the tops of my feet(psoriasis) and the only reason WHY-is because I had these HUGH bandages on both feet--and he said---*let me see how bad this it*---so he did the ummm thing and then he asked *is your derma also in the arthritis field?* NO--I said and then he suggested that I change doctors cus there could be arthritis condition---???? And that didnt sound *weird* to me cus waaaaaaay back I had to have my thrumb-nail removed due to a bad case of psoriasis which constantly caused me infections under the nail bed~~~

Soooooooo---I called my Dr. Kozin---cus he always directs me to the right people---tis 8pm so either he didnt get my message or he is still tied up---

Yes------I have had a few parts of my body removed and reshaped-- at least I can laugh at this----

sleep tight--dont let the bed bugs bite~~~

Barbara,
You are a trooper!

I hope they get you to the right place very soon so you can get some relief. The doctor situation anymore is like being a mouse in a maize.

Take care.

Barbara,

Yep, psoriasis is an autoimmune disease. There's such a thing as psoriatic arthtitis. Have you tried treating it with Dovonex, (generic name - calcipotriene), cream or ointment?

Well I found out that the last OINTMENT was VIT. D----and that worsened it--

Tex--yup *I* know that it is an autoimmune ailment---appears no-one else does--

and by the way---my dearest GP KOZIN called me at 9PM----asked *do I have pain* in the area---*NO*---same thing the foot DR. asked-----so Kozen said I DO NOT NEED to see an arthritic doctor!!! and he took a good guess at what the DERMA> prescribed for me---amazing guy---by the way there is a big write up on Kozin in last weeks paper--forgot what Kozin specializes in!!!!

So I went back to another ointment that I bought--took the itching away---sooooooooo on Monday we shall HEAR what the WELLNESS DR. has to add--
