i have been affected by psoriasis quite badly at times and have been unable to work, due to infections. then i an ok for a while.

it is very interesting to read you post as i get infected ps on my lower legs and have had it for a few years now, but would like to ask you does it get better at any time of the year? the ps i have goes away in october and comes back in march i am left with scarred skin in the winter but it is not infamed. can i ask how did you find out you had lupus? as i have been looking into this, can you have blood test done? i don't know about you but i don't use steriod cream as i know it can make the skin thin. would look forward to some info as just feel i am in the dark and doc is not much help, many thanks.

Yes

I too get infected Ps, my GP prescribed Fucibet cream which cleared it up in three days.
