Hello everyone,
I have a diagnosis of psoriasis, made a couple of months ago. Legs, thighs, arms, hands and feet. Using Enstilar at the moment which helps.
I had a diagnosis of atopic eczema, full body, about a year ago, got better over time, then bright red rectangular patch on both forelegs, no-one very sure what that was, and dermatology said varicose eczema, but I think that was wrong. That faded with steroid cream. Now had a rather typical psoriasis rash.
So I know its early days for me.... I am 78 years old. I also have severe Chronic Kidney failure, no dialysis though yet.
I am curious to know if the progression from atopic eczema to psoriasis is common, or recognised, or unusual.
Thank you for reading this, and for any reply
Patrick
