Psoriasis
HiI am suffering from Psoriasis for last 20 years. I read a lot about homeopathy and started graphites 30C for last 10 days or so. I remember people mentioning that the skin should worsen before it gets better. I do not see any difference so far. Please advise if you have any suggestions

I know that this is a very complicated affliction and can be stress related. I have heard good things about Oregon grape ( mahonia aquifolium). I found some information about it on Prevention Magazine and they had an article discussing all of the scientifically proven herbal supplements. Oregon grape ( mahonia aquifolium) was one of themrecommended for Eczema, psoriasis, and blepheritis. Dosage recommended = 1:5 tincture - 1 teaspoon orally 3 X a day, apply oregon grape cream to effected areas twice a day. If you have Blepheritis skip the cream. Be patient, use for three months before judging effectiveness, if it work for you then use for up to 2 years depending on the severity. Of course you will want to research this product for yourself to check for drug interactions with meds that you are already taking. Good luck to you, I hope the irritation stops soon.
