Have You Been Treated For Psoriasis, But Find Out It's Something Else?

My friend for years has been treated for psoriasis by a dermatologist. She even had a biopsy done. Now they are saying that she doesn't have psoriasis. Oh, my goodness.

Has this ever happened to you? What would you do if this did happen to you?

We would love to hear from you.

  1. I had a doctor tell me one time that I didn't have psoriasis that I had vitaligo because of the discoloration of my skin where I had a psoriasis patch previously. I got so mad. It felt like total disrespect to me since I had psoriasis for years at that point. Vickie W., Team Member

    1. Hello , Trust me, I get it. I had a doctor years ago who told me that black people don't get psoriasis. I have had 6 biopsies to prove to doctors that what I have is psoriasis. The things we have to deal with. Thanks for chiming in.
