The EADD a trifle annoyed thread.

Yeah this is what I read when I looked it up! Doesn't sound like something I'd want to self-prescribe...

Marmz, that sounds just like what happened to my pal's son, he moved to the states a couple of years back and I think he caught a virus of some kind and his face ballooned like your poor sis. His parents were shitting it, quite fucking horrible :| Some of the body's responses are a bit OTT.
 
I was on the stuff for about 6 months or so, they came in the most enormous squidgy gel caps that looked more like suppositories.

They made me feel like shite and as well as catching every cold going I got genuine flu which I've never had since, I was on oral steroids as well at the time. Like I said I do think of myself as lucky, I don't have to take them anymore but at the time there were very real concerns about my health due to my Psoriasis.

That was a good number of years ago, it's nowhere near as bad these days.
 
knock, that's the problem with them mainly, like atm just said, you're left vulnerable to catching all sorts of virus related stuff, and when you contract such it tends to hit ten times harder too.

atm, my dad's had psoriasis all his life too, but not nearly as bad as yours sounds, He had it over his arms, in his fingernails and on his head. Cause he was at sea all the time and his skin was often wet for long periods, it exacerbated the problem a fair bit.

I've seen a bloke on that embarrassing bodies show who had it real bad and possibly similar to your own. He was prescribed exactly the same as you were, and went on to manage it fairly okayish with no medication once the main part was cleared up.

Must be a nightmare to be burdened with it all the time on the extreme end tho .. so open to infection and such .. a massive amount of additional stress.
 
It's a horrible condition that I wouldn't wish on anyone, it genuinely tormented me for many years.

They claim it is stress related which may well be the case but having it is dam stressful so telling people that just feels like a kick in the teeth, many GPs seem to consider it a self induced condition.

I got up to about 40% coverage more than once, the burning and itching never lets up and since I have it on my hands you can't avoid peoples revolution. I'm not sure how much all that contributed to my lack of self worth and depression but I guess it didn't help and I refused to discuss the issue outside of doctors for many years.

Oddly my father developed it in his late 40's and I developed it about 6 months later, it almost never goes away completely and I still have to mange it on a daily basis or it would get a hold once more.

It seems they are getting closer to a cure a they now understand the mechanism of rogue T cells being produced by your immune system this also explains why it begets itself, as my consultant used to say.
 
E-On have annoyed me a trifle.

They have returned my Feed-In Tariff application as "improperly completed" (even though I know I filled it in right) and want me to re-submit it. With an up-to-date generation meter reading; which means I'm being skanked out of the best part of £30. I know it's really not much in the grand scheme of things; but it's the principle of the thing.
 
I am slightly perturbed that it's half two and I'm still sat on my arse doing nothing.

GPs are generally not great at managing Psoriasis and I'd strongly advise anyone who developed the condition to insist on a referral to a dermatologist....or they may get a 'trifle annoyed'

Mm, my mum's on immuno-suppressing etanercept for psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis.. seems to work, but it's fairly hardcore medication. :/
 
My housemate rolled her eyes when I tried to assure her I'm 'from the ghetto'.

This was in context, btw. Not just spontaneous bullshit.
 
I'm mildly annoyed that I don't have any recreationals left, and don't have the money to get any, because of a holiday booking. Ahh sober life. :\

Coincidentally, I tend to be slightly perturbed if it's half two and I'm not sat on my arse doing nothing. Horse. Course. Of course.

Thankfully am not currently slightly perturbed =D

Lol I can just picture you suddenly going 'Hey, by the way...I'm from the ghetto' in the middle of a conversation, with slightly raised eyebrows and a sultry look in your eyes. Pure class :D

Apparently I grew up in and around some notoriously dodgy areas and estates. At least when I mention where to folk who know the areas in question it's often greeted with a sharp intake of breath, a wince and "Rather you than me!". Had no idea at the time. Although I did notice on my regular school walk that the pub at the end of my street was usually mopping blood off the walls from the previous night's stabbing quota of a morn.

Am I that fucking transparent? =D

Shambles - I was more or less the same. Thought Openshaw was 'normal'. Thank heavens for kindly posh students with a fetish for white-trash rent-boy types.

Reminds me of that rather annoying "vintage dress" advert with the two blonde girls. I think it's for Aerial washing powder.
 
I'm a trifle miffed this thread isn't as literal as I wished it to be

I get over things easily though...

... but don't half get miffed by my touch sensitive lamp on my bedside table. Nudge it with a book, elbow, water glass whatever and pop it goes off. Then I have to re-tap it 3 times to get it back on to full.
