Ola! How are you today? I hope that all is well with you! As for

psoriasis, no I have excema. I'm kinda glad about that. My

maternal grandfather had psoriasis so awfully bad. It was horrific.

My mom has disfigured hands from diabetes, my Aunt (mom's sis) has

RA. Kinda interesting, I guess. I'm hanging in here though. I keep

getting defeated but, for some gosh darn reason - I keep getting back

up...Granted - I get up a lot slower these days! Creeking and

cracking about! LOL Oh, by the way, I do seem to get the excema

rashes with flares and from hot showers in cold weather. I always

thought it was ringworm or something when I was growing up. It shows

up, fades, leaves white spot, tans over, gone! Just like that.

Doesn't really effect me other than I look like a mildly spotted

pup! LOL As for the clubbing - I guess all I can really do at this

point is what I'm doing, quitting smoking a.s.a.p.! I'm just about

there too! I'm hoping that it will end the worry with my fingers! If

it doesn't - then my pcp better get on it! I'm doing my part -

resting (more than I would like), going to PT, going to the therapy

pool, smoking cessation, keeping appts and riding his ***! The real

problem is that patience is not my best virtue. One step at a time.

I think maybe if I go in there a non-smoker he might lose an iota

of " tude " . We're gonna find out! XXX's Kim
