Caro I have sent this to you as well as Minutus in the hope that by some miracle it will post but would you be able to post it for me so Rochelle can get this. Thanks yet again Pauline
Rochelle, Harris Ruddock i his Homoeopathic Vade Mecum describes
In the common form of Psoriasis there are whitish minute spots, made up of dry silvery looking scales , heaped together on tawny red patches of skin about the extensor aspects of the elbow and knee, and other places where bones are near the surface (p.vulgaris); when the spots are larger, they resemble drops of mortar and are found on the breast back and limbs (p.guttata); then the eruption may be more developed, and extend over a larger surface, sometimes covering an entire limb (p.diffusa); when the eruption runs together in a serpentine form, the scales are thin and quickly reproduced (l.gyrata); when the scales are large, dry and adherent, and the patches thickened and cracked, a slight discharge mau occur causing scabs - this is the chronic form (l.inveterta); Hope this helps. I have a case of Psoriatic arthritis also - much emotional supression (actually I think its repression) and anger and resentment that it just wont 'go away' - resistance at having to take responsibility for the changes necessary to deal with it - wants someone to give the 'miracle cure' and angry because it wont happen that way!! Anyway anything you learn may help - she has had some relief from Pulsatilla for pain and emotions. Regards Pauline
