Take a person with psoriasis for a long time. Did you ever get tired of all the bull crap How to cure psoriasis? Read my story first and then judge for yourself. First, there are some basic things you need to understand before teaching you how to cure psoriasis of less than 3 months.
As long as I remember I tried to improve psoriasis my whole life. Other than the "temporary", but the total disappearance of all signs of psoriasis is my body a few years ago, as I'm concerned, there was no cure for psoriasis. But wait ... In all these years I have been dealing with this evil, and so is everyone else, including the narrow-minded doctors.
The reason is that there will never be a cure for psoriasis, so long that the team will have the task of finding a biologist and why we need a killer T-cells are an exaggeration, and create a mild daily use of drugs that suppresses the immune system without the risk of developing other diseases. Does sound contradictory? And 'of course!
Rest assured that I speak and write from experience, and more extensive research I did on the subject. Just to let you know that I am not against doctors. I just think that most doctors live in ignorance! Can you blame them? They have done extensive studies in their respective disciplines in order to graduate, then in their minds, why should they listen to others? How dare they ask me to "think" outside the box?
They usually have a family like most of us are busy with their personal lives, and Heck, it's not their problem ... they have become indifferent and unresponsive to complaints from people about their legitimate health problems ... Until it hits them personally! He added the fact that they live in constant fear of being sued.
I was a patient with psoriasis since the age of 22 I am now 62 and I hope my story will inspire you not to waste too much time with this disease ... Psoriasis is not as bad as you age. Be deprived of life, like going swimming with your kids to avoid embarrassment to them or yourself ... things like meetings, summer clothing, the beaches on foot, always hidden and always aware of people watching, comment! Is it contagious? You know the feeling ... denied access to public swimming areas, because they fear that you can catch another disease ... so they say and do this for many years, even decades ... deprive all the little things that really matter, as you could have done except that your doctor would have "thought" outside the box a little!
Using the prescribed creams, useless, and methods that do not work, there is hope for a better life! But it does now, because I will continue the story to give some information about psoriasis, which is never revealed. And what you must do to live longer psoriasis! This does not mean that the disease is cured ... It simply means that they will never be any visible signs of the body Psoriasis ... but, better yet, psoriasis is controlled by ... In fact, the spread must be stopped!
Let us begin with what is psoriasis? In short, psoriasis, a chronic autoimmune disease that appears on the skin. It occurs when the immune system sends faulty signals that speed up the growth cycle of skin cells. I want you to think really hard about these two sentences ... autoimmune disease and the fault signal!
- Autoimmune disease? The disease is a bit difficult. It's more like an unbalanced immune system (probably due to some sort of toxin in your body that has not yet been identified).
- A faulty signal! It is therefore very important to understand. Skin cells have a cycle of steady growth and natural about 24 days on average. In case of psoriasis, the growth cycle much faster, and therefore does not give you enough time to shed your old skin, new skin accumulates at the top causes inflammation and produces the psoriatic plaques before the old skin was time to throw. What you have is an accumulation of skin.
The skin is a highly evolved defense mechanism in which every time it feels to be attacked by some foreigners, non-toxin-a sort of (several times a day), represents the first cells of the defense to stop these attacks, both how is corrupted and penetrated the skin, leaving the natural growth of new skin cells to take courses.
Red inflammation seen in the skin is actually the first line of defense, as an insect bite. If these guys can not do the job, then use real killer cells (T cells), which are doing the work. These killer cells integrated into the system memory, remembering the last infections ... and, specifically, to react when the intruder is present, or when called by the first line of defense of a toxin other / outsider. The natural growth cycle of skin cells continues as if nothing had happened.
Once you see the red inflammation around the cut or wound, is that the front line of a work to be done to treat a cut or wound infections, and to keep away ... and this is normal. Without inflammation, ulcers and wounds do not heal, and leave you open to serious infections. In the case of psoriasis, and the first line of defense and allowing the growth of new skin to take it, of course, is the real killer cells, which are immediately spring into action, and thus cause the growth of new skin to be fast the creation of a sac of skin that make up the scales, the patches are looking for silver.
Remember what I said about the killer T cells ... have an integrated memory system. When called to respond to a particular infection, we still answer to this particular infection in the future. So the first contracted psoriasis and killer T cells responded, that's all ... was embedded in his memory forever. Therefore, in the case of psoriasis, the immune system, instead of letting the first line of defense for this role, he invited the killer T cells, interferes with the normal cycle of growth, and accelerates the healing process more fast, thus causing an excess of new skin underneath the skin still old shed.
Psoriasis is not contagious. It 'usually causes red, scaly patches appear on the skin, although some patients have no skin symptoms. Scaly patches caused by psoriasis, commonly called plaque psoriasis, are areas of inflammation of the skin and overproduction. Skin rapidly accumulates at these sites which gives it a silvery-white appearance. Commemorative Plaques frequently occur on the skin of elbows and knees but can affect any area including the scalp, palms of hands and soles of the feet and genitals.
Disorder, as it is called now, is a chronic relapsing ranging in severity from minor localized patches to complete body coverage. The nails and toes are frequently affected (psoriatic nail dystrophy) and can be seen as an isolated symptom. Psoriasis can also cause inflammation of the joints, which is known as psoriatic arthritis.
Psoriasis appeared on my body, after a deep cut, I suffered from a piece of chrome molding of an automobile. The cup was left forearm near the elbow t left. At that time I had not thought much about, but was pleased that the incision 2 "long and deep had healed fairly quickly. I was 22 at the time.
A few months later, he started itching and I realized that the scaling of the skin where the cut was. As time passed, more chipping had moved to the left elbow. Now I was constantly scratching and picking at his left elbow. The more I scratched, the scales developed scales blown, silver, and all I had to do was collect through ... and was going to fall. Then I was diagnosed with psoriasis. They said it was incurable and learn to live with him. The following year, the psoriasis has spread to the elbows and knees ... and a very small or a plaque on the right thigh.
Fast forward 3 years ... The point of all this. In 1974 I turned 25 ... and I never believe what happened. I was hospitalized for the growth of the left optic nerve. The growth is called a pseudo tumor, which only continued to grow, and slowly slipped out of my left eye socket and cause extreme pain. I stayed in the hospital (Montreal Institute of Neurology), about 90 days ... but not without a series of many, many tough tests, including a team of experts in the world are trying to figure out the best approach to solve my problem. One option was to drill a hole through the skull to try to get a biopsy of this growth. It 'was immediately ruled out because of it being in the optic nerve, guaranteed to complete blindness in his left eye and right eye bandage paternity.
The only alternative left was to put me on some medication, which at that time was considered extremely dangerous because of its side effects. One of their biggest concerns was the sterility of the rest of my life, and the extreme weakening my immune system leaving me open to serious infections that would otherwise not happen ... as if I held on 25 I mean, what were my options ... blindness or without children! I am presented with prednisone.
Before you start to tell my experience of prednisone, let me give you a brief description of this product according to Wikipedia, which is to write this report, about 35 years later.Prednisone corticosteroid is a synthetic drug that is particularly potent immunosuppressive and affects almost the entire immune system. It is used to treat some inflammatory diseases, and (a
higher doses), cancer, but has significant side effects. Since it suppresses the immune system and leave patients more susceptible to infections.
In fact, overnight at the hospital recently, I was put in a room with six other men who had prostate cancer. All men received f prednisone for the treatment of prostate cancer. Prednisone is a prodrug that is converted by the liver into prednisolone, which is the active substance and also a steroid.
My doctor has no choice but to put me on a high dose starts with 36 tablets, then skip a day and then down to 34 pills ... and so, ever skip a day between the two. It worked! Not only suppress the growth of my optic nerve because it is an immunosuppressant, but which has removed the famous Real kills cells that cause psoriasis ... and all my psoriasis disappeared! Once the prednisone ... and a few months on the road as psoriasis began to reappear.
Fast forward to 1979. My father died at age 59 ... and I'm traumatized! This trauma causes the dough to sit on my optic nerve again. Back to prednisone, but this time on a smaller scale. 24 to 22 to 20 and so on. All my psoriasis disappeared ... and comes back a few months down the line, after stopping treatment. Ironically, my doctor, a neurologist at the Montreal Neurological Institute informs me that prednisone is not as dangerous as previously thought!
Fast forward to 1984. Low and behold another trauma in my life ... but this time due to financial collapse. About to lose my house, so that the trauma causes the growth of me again. Back prednisone at a dose smaller ... 08/10/12 ... with the same results. After 1984, I never went back to prednisone.
Fast forward to 2005. Is a difficult time in my life ... single, unemployed, living in a basement apartment with plenty of moisture and mold at the time. In addition, I will go through difficult times with my teenage son. Now, psoriasis in the right thigh has reached the size of a small plate. This stress is beginning to take its toll. Psoriasis is now appeared in my left leg just above my ankle and is growing rapidly. He also appeared in the calf of his right leg and rapid growth.
Fast forward from 2008 to 2009. Psoriasis is now spread to my lower back, buttocks, and between my thighs and genitals. I am a nightmare. Early one morning in the fall of 2009, around 5:00, the hearth, and now my feet touch the floor, I feel the excruciating pain in the feet and ankles. My feet, toes, ankles swollen. In a panic I get to the hospital only in socks, because I can not get my shoes. After a couple of blood tests and physical examination, I am diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis brought my psoriasis!
I referred to a dermatologist, who says that I can not do anything, but to provide the cream. I politely tell him: "You obviously know very little about psoriasis," and leave! The hospital had also referred to a rheumatologist who is supposed to be an expert in psoriatic arthritis. Unfortunately, I tried to see the specialist for over a year. I hope you put me on a maintenance level of prednisone, but I'm not holding my breath ... why do not particularly care what he says, and that's why!
My research led me to prednisone 21 page report prepared by Dr. Schein ... at describing what is relevant for psoriasis. I mentioned what I think is important for people with psoriasis ... you need to know before deciding to take this route, since I'm about to:
First What is clear in my mind is this ... Prednisone to make it possible for you to live free from psoriasis.
The second is a fact that can be taken at a maintenance level, without much concern.
Description: Prednisone is the most commonly prescribed oral corticosteroids. The drug is metabolized in the liver to its active form, prednisolone. Prednisone is 4 times as potent as a glucocorticoid (also known as GC). So what is glucocorticoids? GCS are natural hormones that prevent or suppress the inflammatory and immune response when administered at pharmacological doses. GCS is a part of the feedback mechanism in the immune system that turns the immune activity (inflammation) down. They are used in medicine to treat diseases caused by an overactive immune system, such as psoriasis. They also affect some of the mechanisms of abnormal cancer cells so they are used in high doses to treat cancer.
Side note: if it is prescribed oral steroids more often ... it can only be dangerous, as my doctor told me once.
Pharmacokinetics: Prednisone is rapidly absorbed through the gastrointestinal membrane after oral administration. The maximum effect can be observed after 1 to 2 hours. Systemic prednisone (or taken in accordance with a specific dose prescribed) is rapidly distributed in the kidneys, intestines, skin, liver and muscles. Any excess ... inactive and active portions small excreted in the urine.
Directions: Important ... the recommended doses are similar doses of glucocorticoids. The following is the exact text is taken from the report dealing with psoriasis. "For the treatment of rheumatic diseases like arthritis, juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, severe psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, acute and subacute bursitis, acute nonspecific tenosynovitis, acute gouty arthritis and gout, osteoarthritis and tennis elbow. "
Oral dose: The dose is adjusted dose (concentration is determined) to the answer. The usual dose, however, is 5 to 30 mg once a day.
Side effects: Yes, there are many of them ... but they are "more" as a precaution. As I said earlier, my
The doctor told me that prednisone is not as dangerous as was thought to be. You should also pay attention to your existing condition.There is over-the-counter drugs on the market that people take every day that has side effects like many or for worse! I'll give you an example here ... Aleve!
There are other oral medications are prescribed for psoriasis that is also full of side effects. I for one believe that the prednisone safer than most ... but at least it works.
Conclusion: Given the amount I need to take prednisone, with little or no side effects, I really think we psoriasis patients ... especially those of psoriasis is scaled for psoriatic arthritis should be able to decide if we want to take a small risk or not! It's up to you to ask questions for the doctor
Irony: I understand that after a certain age, or almost all die of cancer or heart failure, if their immune system is strong or not. One of the warnings to take Prednisone weakens the immune system and make you more susceptible to cancer. But still, when you get cancer and you are likely to become in later years ... I was treated with prednisone, such as prostate cancer ... the greatest murderess of men close to heart failure. The same can be said for women with breast cancer. Is not it ironic?
Could it be that if you take Prednisone before the cancer is growing, the less your chances of getting cancer?
Or: Now I'm about to reveal to you what happened to me in 1990 and 1992. If you remember, then it was a great emotion on this new supplement called "beta-carotene." But beta-carotene, one of the most expensive special is no longer available due to some "people" have started saying that you could actually overdose of beta-carotene ... which proved to be false. After being in this brand in about 3-4 months, all my psoriasis disappeared. Unfortunately, I never quite sorted, and finally returned to psoriasis.
This taught me an important lesson, because that particular brand of beta-carotene was equivalent to eating several pounds of carrots, lettuce, cabbage, and fruits such as apples and huge portions, all in a day. It 'clear that this is physically impossible, is a natural form. But here's the key: it is complementary to consist of huge amounts of fruits and vegetables, especially carrots.
The supplements are taken for regular meals. However, the point is that this is beta-carotene was the main one is a massive intake of vegetables and fruit, which in turn restore the balance of the auto-immune system.
Finally, to control psoriasis and make it disappear forever, it is necessary to restore the balance of your auto-immune system (safely remove these killer T cells) through a proper diet consisting mainly of vegetables and alkaline fruits ... and stay there for the rest of his life.
In order to have a doctor stupid that she is on a maintenance dose of prednisone ... What can you do? Fear of taking prednisone or any other medication, psoriasis. First, start to create and follow a diet tailored to people with psoriasis.
