Imagine your skin becoming so inflamed that your body can't properly regulate its temperature or fluids.

Erythrodermic psoriasis is a rare, severe form that can affect most of the body, causing widespread redness, peeling, pain, fever, chills and dehydration.

It can disrupt temperature and fluid regulation and requires immediate hospital care.

This isn't something you wait out at home.

Plot twist: those weird ridges in my nails were psoriasis, and no one told me.

I didn’t realize nail psoriasis was even a thing until researching this series.

It can cause pitting, discoloration, splitting, crumbling, and nails separating from the nail bed.

It’s common with psoriatic arthritis. Who knew? Not me.

What weird symptom did the internet finally explain for you?

This isn't just a painful psoriasis flare. In some cases, it can actually be life-threatening.

Pustular psoriasis is one of the rarest forms of psoriasis.

Generalized pustular psoriasis can develop rapidly, causing painful pustules, fever and chills. Severe flares can be life-threatening, and treatment can be incredibly expensive.

Cost shouldn't be a barrier to treatment.

WE'RE OFFICIALLY ON VACATION!!

Our family is on our way to Antigua and Barbuda for the week.

I will be unable to answer messages and fill orders until we get back on August 31st.

Orders may take up to 15 business days if you order between now and then!

"Persons in this shirt are less functional than they appear."

Flying whole chronically ill/ dynamically disabled is not just a get up and go kind of situation.

I spent the entire week preparing and making sure all my meds were filled, accounted for, logged, etc.

Last time I took an early flight my body crashed at the airport and people just stared at me angrily as if I were a massive inconvenience in their day.

This time I decided to try a new method of communication that doesn't only rely on those with me to communicate my situation if something were to happen.

As you live with chronic conditions you learn to dot all your i's and cross all your t's BEFORE anything can happen.

I officially have a tank top and t-shirt for travel.

I'll let you know if I have to use it and how it's received while I'm away.

See you in a week! ✌🏻

Death learned about chronic illness and specialist wait times this week.

Even death seems to understand how brutal the wait is.

Anyway, here's my first comic strip.

Meet Death.

I wonder if he'll spare our main character?

Any guesses what will happen next, leave them below.

And what should we name our main character? I haven't landed on a name I like yet.

You get strep throat. A week or two later, you're finally feeling better.
You think you're in the clear, and then suddenly, your skin erupts into tiny psoriasis spots you've never seen before.

Guttate psoriasis causes small, drop-shaped scaly spots and is often triggered by infections—especially strep throat.

Stress and certain medications can trigger it too.

**Because apparently psoriasis needed plot twists.**

Apparently my autoimmune disease just needs a "heavy metal detox" 🙄

A common myth is that natural remedies, diets, or detoxes can CURE psoriasis. They can't.

Psoriasis is an immune-mediated disease, NOT a toxin build up. Healthy habits can support your health, but they don't magically switch off psoriasis.

What unsolicited nonsense masquerading as advice have you been given?

Plaque psoriasis: the one most people think of when they hear “psoriasis.”

It’s the most common type, causing raised, inflamed patches that can be itchy, painful, dry and covered in scale. I literally had it on my eyelids.

But psoriasis isn’t just a skin problem—it’s a chronic immune-mediated disease.

And yes, it can hurt like hell.

Here's a standing PSA to EVERYONE who thinks handing out unsolicited medical and life advice to those with chronic illnesses or disabilities is acceptable.

We also don't body shame, or comment on what other people choose to do with their bodies.

And we most certainly DON'T imply that people aren't trying hard enough to "cure" themselves.

$5,445.33. Every three months. 💀

That's what my psoriasis medication would cost without insurance.

That's $21,781.32 a year just to access medication for a chronic disease.

And people wonder why medication costs are such a big deal for chronically ill people.

Happy Psoriasis Awareness Month, I guess?

While I'm very grateful that I found something that works, without insurance, I most definitely wouldn't be able to afford my meds.

The picture is an actual receipt (with my information blacked out) from my pharmacy run today.
