Touching and proximity changed with Covid big time. My doc always checked but I know how special he was. He died of an aortic aneurysm 2 year ago. Yes, he was jabbed. My new pulmonologist is younger and not as touchy feely. My PCP is great. She checks everything she can get to with my clothes on and asks about the rest!

Like my dermatologist who inspected me from across the room.

But he had a light treatment to sell me for my psoriasis!

Psoriasis is usually a childhood vaccine injury— at least 85% of the

time. It’s listed on most vaccine manufacturers inserts, it’s just rarely read by doc nor patient.

If you got vaccines as a kid, you can research good heavy metal detoxes like 8 HOT baths with epsom salts and bentonite clay. Really cheap and frequently cures it helps a good bit.

Thanks. Those baths help morgellons syndrome ( cross domain bacteria) too.

Money in the pocket, just not your pocket.

I tried the light treatment. My mom offered to pay the 45$ copays. Burned my skin, very painful, very little results for the money and pain.

I think if I heal my leaky gut, that may affect the psoriasis more than any external treatment or pharmaceutical biologic drug

Sounds crazy but go follow Dr Paul Saladino and his animal based diet. The carnivore diet has cured so many of the incurable

Time for new doctor! I seem to have outgrown my psoriasis! I never had it badly, like my daughter does and she only has 10%. I had just a couple of small spots left and after a heavy course of prednisone after a bad bout of flu, it went away. That was 7 years ago. Good luck.

Thank you. Psoriasis is the least of my worries! Laundry list of autoimmune issues. Blessed with an integrative medicine doctor recently.

This is gold for a comedy skit. Dana Carvey and David Spade would be great as doc and patient.

But sorry for that ludicrous experience.

😮 That doesn't rise to any standard of care, especially since masks and gloves will save them!! 😜

Our family lost our exceptional, old school, caring, Christian Lyme doc to a pulmonary embolism 2 years ago. He was full of life, vigor and joy at age 70 with no plans to retire. We heard he took the J&J jab so he could travel. Truly irreplaceable and a great loss to so many 😞

My doctor was 69 and planning heart valve surgery when he turned 70, just like my dad had done. I told him at one point that my biggest fear with my terminal condition was that he would retire. He said he was never going to. Prophetic! He got the mRNA vaccines. I think he said Pfizer. I couldn't go to the memorial service at a local high school auditorium but my grandson worked security that day and said there were over 400 people there. He was well loved.

My dermatologist NP says take off as much of your clothes as you are comfortable with, and put on the robe. She is very thorough!
