So this is what it really is...
I've been telling you good folk for sometime now what Psoriasis is and how it affects me but I have never shown you my Psoriasis.
Now this post is not for the faint hearted, and that includes me.
I have thought long and hard about posting these pictures of me, but to make this real, and so you can see what I am suffering day to day I am posting these pictures of various parts of my Body (not those bits!!!).
You won't enjoy it...but this is me....
Yes it is as sore as it looks
Here's looking forward to being greased up by the nurses at the hospital as soon as possible

Cyberkitten took the words right out of my mouth!
I just hope that you get better soon.
Sweet jesus!!!!!!!!
Baby, that is BAD.......
I've known you for five years, you're dearer to me than my own flesh and blood - and the only bit I recognise is the bracelet....
oh honey.....
- and no wonder you are unusually quiet atm....
Here's to a phone call from the hospital soon.....

What they said above.
Here's to them getting you sort out soon.
Really, desperately hoping now that you get that phone call soon.
PS Better hide the rubber mallet so Mrs A doesn't get her hands on it ...
YOU POOR THING. HOPE THAT CALL COMES SOOOOOON. I'M NOT GOING TO MOAN AFTER SEEING YOU (well i will but i will be thinking about what you've got to cope with)

Holy crap! I've never known anyone with this condition. Is yours an extreme case, is this typical, what exactly is going on with your body that this is happening? Reply when you're up to it, from the looks of you, that might be a while. So sorry for your condition.
Um, never mind. I just read your "10 years ago this week" post and did an Internet search. So sorry.
First time visitor - fucking a no wonder you are not sleeping - prior to the phone call, aren't they able to manage your pain for you at home hon - i can't even imagine what you are going through and i deal with severe pain on a daily basis and it is nowhere near what you are dealing with - my thoughts are with you
Oh My Dear Mr. A... That is the meanest looking stuff I've ever seen! I dearly hope you get the help you need at Hospital ASAP!!! I can see why you can't wait. Soooo very sorry you are going through such agony. My thoughts and prayers are with you and I send you many hugs from over the pond, here in L.A. to you there in the UK!
OMG Mr A!
That looks very painful indeed, sorry you have to go through this and hope you get relief from this soon. I think posting these pics was a good idea to lets us all see exactly what it is that you are going through. I have heard of psoriasis (sp?)... in fact I had a friend in school who had it but very very mildly compared to yours. I had no idea that it could get as bad and painful as it looks in those pics. I don't think anyone can blame you for beiing a bit grumpy with all the pain you are in. Hope it gets better for you soon.
Take Care

Hang in there, Mate
x x x Hope you get the call soon. Looks soooo sore D. I've thankfully never had it that bad.
thanks all, still at home, no call from the hospital yet.
Lounging around in my pure cotton Pyjamas today cos it's more comfortable.
Just told my Line manager that I won't be back to work until at least April.
Dear Mr A
I suffer from P too but after seeing your pictures I have tears in my eyes and will never complain about mine again. I get it on my shins, scalp and back but never as badly. I can only begin to imagine the pain you are going through. My heart truly goes out to you and I hope your derm starts to kick some ass with the hospital
Oh my giddy aunt.
Bloody Hell Mr A that is bad, I know a couple of other sufferers but that has to be the worse outbreak I have seen. You poor bugger !
Thinking of you and hoping that call comes soon !
I'm speechless.
Chin up dear boy. If the call doesn't come soon firebomb the NHS.
You gotta get better for the annual Crazie Holiday....it's booked now!

God, that's awful. You poor man, how on earth do you ever manage to think about anything else, never mind writing whole posts.
I hope you get that treatment really soon.
That's definitely the most angry looking skin I've seen Agi. Hope the treatment helps settle things down. Hang in there.
Ouch. My sympathies. Best of luck with the treatment.
Regards
Bill
Hi, I sympathise totally, i looked just like you last sept (without the gaps), then i had infliximab & like magic, my face cleared overnight. I hope you get all the attention you need and plenty of grease!!!!!
Niki
makes my psoriasis look like a small blemish. I have had it all over before (guttate)and know how stressful and consuming it can be. I will most definitely be sponsoring or walking for skin! Good luck, hope it gets sorted soon.

Very nearly cried for you when I saw the pics. I really hope you get the call. Keep the faith bruv
Benny
I have had P for 25 years now, I thought I was hard done by.
I was like BennyI could have cried for you!
You poor suffering bastard.
I will never feel hard done by again. I know the feel of a thousand ants on my skin, you are into millions.
please god they can help your pain, it does hurt I know.
regards to you pal
John
