Mystery solved :-D

I have Guttate Psoriasis. There is Psoriasis in the family but it looked so different that it never occurred to me. Evidently it can be brought on by Strep virus (I did have a bit of a sore throat a week ago but put that down to hayfever) or stress (lots of that at the moment!) Hopefully it will be an isolated episode and not reoccur. Luckily I seem to have it really mildly as it can cover the whole body :shock:
I've been given some lovely creams and lotions to apply that should clear it up in a week or so. The doc also said that sun is good, so just need to persuade hubs to take me to The Maldives )grin2(

That's good news (I think!) - at least it is easily treatable.

Sorry boys, no piccies of Lucy now for you lot!

PS. I am very impressed with your male bonding efforts, although you are all being so affectionate with each other I am beginning to wonder......

Glad it's nothing serious Lucy. I think I speak for the other two gentlemen who have expressed concern for your well being taht we are still willing to offer our expert opinions should you post some photos. Purely as a means of getting a second opinion of course. You can never be too careful where your health is concerned )t'

I don't think you need worry Helen we were discussing manly macho issues. What could be more manly than showing concern for health matters, both human and chicken or more macho than motorbikes and a desire to see photos of ladies bums.
