Prescription Drug Advertising

Only two countries in the world allow advertising (TV and magazine) for prescription medications–the United States and New Zealand (although the American Medical Association has recently voted to call for a ban on this very lucrative type of advertising).

The reason this advertising is problematic is that people are taking the word of paid actors over the advise of their doctor. Continue reading “Prescription Drug Advertising”

Dr. Kate Rheaume-Bleu

Sometimes just taking a risk is worth it!

I was feeling a bit blue the other night and wondering how to get this information about our protocol out to more people. Maybe it was the “blues” that made me remember one of our heroes in this fight against psoriasis–Dr. Kate Rheaume-Bleu, a Canadian naturopath who has been promoting the use of the vitamins K2 and D3 (for osteoporosis).

We had often Continue reading “Dr. Kate Rheaume-Bleu”

I don’t care to hear Your Sob stories of Psoriasis! …..I just want You to try this  and prove this Grumpy old Fuck Wrong!……..I was not looking for a Cure or a Treatment  when all this happened ….. it just happened……I Continue reading “AHHHHH Relief!”

DOCUMENTARY OR DECEPTION!!!

My friend, George, cut out an article from a small newspaper. I just had time to give it a glance but was delighted to see that a Vancouver based filmmaker (a woman) had done a 10 minute documentary on psoriasis called the “Invisible Man”. Free for everyone to watch. Doesn’t Continue reading “DOCUMENTARY OR DECEPTION!!!”

The Joys of Swimming–Minus the Stares!!!

If someone had told me a year ago that I’d be swimming in a public pool, in a bathing suit, I’d have told them they were nuts….BUT…it’s happening. Every Monday and Wednesday from 1:15 onward, it’s only $2.20 to use the Olympic complex next to the Nat Bailey Stadium.

The first time I walked in I was sure people were going to stare at my legs–legs that never saw the light of day for decades. It felt weird. And I felt awkward.

But Continue reading “The Joys of Swimming–Minus the Stares!!!”

The Wonder of Magnesium Chloride OR Dang!!! Charlie’s right again!!!

So, I’ve been arguing with Charlie for months about moisturizing. And because he’s a guy guy, he avoids it like the plague. I figure he’s just stubborn but he says he’s just logical.

Anyway, after cheating a bit Continue reading “The Wonder of Magnesium Chloride OR Dang!!! Charlie’s right again!!!”

CANADIAN THANKSGIVING…feeling grateful:)

Ah, it’s turkey time in the more northern part of North America. As I was telling Charlie, we here in Canada have the good sense to keep Thanksgiving far enough away from Christmas    so that we really enjoy both turkey dinners!

But even more important, this weekend gives me time to Continue reading “CANADIAN THANKSGIVING…feeling grateful:)”

Psoriasis-free…..Part 3

Nope! things just got worse. The next letter threatened not only would we be hit with legal action BUT they would remove everything that I had ever written on the Team Inspire site. Now, for me personally, that wouldn’t have been the end of the world. After all, my skin was already clear.

But all the people who had been helped and all those who would come afterwards would not be able to see the protocol or Continue reading “Psoriasis-free…..Part 3”

1 YEAR WITHOUT PSORIASIS

If someone had told me just over a year ago that I wouldn’t have psoriasis or that I’d be swimming in a public pool  or that I’d be part of a team running a website about psoriasis, I’d have told them that they were just plain crazy.

But here it is–my first anniversary psoriasis-free. It has been a steep learning curve to be sure. With many positive experiences. I got Continue reading “1 YEAR WITHOUT PSORIASIS”

Psoriasis-free…..Part 2

Nope, not everyone was happy. As a matter of fact there appeared to be some pretty angry people on the site who didn’t like what we were doing and certainly didn’t like the good results we were getting.. They posted scare tactics (particularly about the high dosage D3)–about the negative side effects. And they were relentless.

Our thread was constantly under attack–warning letters, threats of suspension, posts deleted. When Charlie was given a two week Continue reading “Psoriasis-free…..Part 2”

Coming Up For My First Year Psoriasis-Free!!!

Wow! Talk about a year!!! Not sure I’d like to repeat all of it–ha! A steep learning curve in some areas. But I have to remind myself that throughout it all–the stress, the changes, the challenges–my skin held. I can’t remember another year in the past 47 when I wasn’t battling psoriasis on some level.

And so much happened. There I was just over a year ago–90% of my body covered with a combination of plaque and Guttate psoriasis. Continue reading “Coming Up For My First Year Psoriasis-Free!!!”

Psoriasis, PSA……… Psoriatic Arthritis

I was asked a long time ago if this protocol had any effects on Psoriatic Arthritis, I had replied that I had not seen any that I noticed, since I suffer from that too…..

well Fingernails, and Toenails are effected by  Psoriatic Arthritis, and I did do a before and after photo of this for my personal interest.

You be the judge!
