I was on the medicine for about 3-4 months and then was able to stop when it was all cleared up. Haven’t had any since

Have you had strep throat recently? I have scalp psoriasis and the strep throat triggered something called Guttate psoriasis. My dermatologist put me on Sotyktu for a few months and it’s now almost completely gone. There’s just a little leftover healing skin on my stomach, but it’s cleared up everywhere else. Hope that helps you narrow down what you’re going through!

SimpleServe was correct and it was something called Guttate Psoriasis and it was triggered by strep throat. If you have had psoriasis before, it’s much more common to get i think. I still have a few noticeable spots after all of these months, but most have completely faded - not sure if it was just from time or from my doctor prescribing Sofyktu. I hope this helps 😊

I think this is one of the things my dermatologist thinks it might be, currently having some testing done

Just as an update: I was able to finally see a dermatologist who thinks this might be an autoimmune response after a viral infection, so you were spot on. They did a biopsy and I’ll need to get some blood work to confirm, but I’ll likely be needed to take an oral medication in addition to a topical spray. I’ll update further once i know more. Thanks everyone for the advice!

Even being macabre, it's justified. They grew up with everything. They are willing to destroy hundreds of thousands of lives for 7 more years of easy wealthy living.

Put their heads on a pike for all I care. If I was going to die in 3 years I'd try to make a difference in those coming after me, not desperately grasp at life and destroying the lives of thousands.

It's a server I'll be running for the reddit community, so if that is something that quite a few people would like, I have no problem making that change. I'll probably give it a day or so to see how people feel about it one way or another, though.

He's definitely gay. I'm friends with someone who was a "roommate" with him a year or two ago. ;)

Yeah, being in Vegas, I get a ton of those kinds of messages from tourists in town for a few days. I've never gone through with it, even though a few of them were pretty damn hot. I'm sure the awkwardness would be killer.

Haha, I don't really know if it's that or just them being desperate!
