[QUOTE="HSSS, post: 2075936, member: 480869"] If your pancreas is working and not failing (as in type 1, but sometimes long term uncontrolled or later type 2) then insulin would ideally be only a short term measure to get immediate control at diagnosis whilst diet is addressed and other medications discussed and put in place if required. If you are insulin resistant in the long term insulin will quite possibly make the problem bigger and progressive. If you address your diet (carbs!) to control the diabetes it may well have beneficial effects on your psoriasis too. That way you’ll have a stable and possibly improved platform to later sort out psoriasis treatment and maybe even less need. Changing psoriasis stuff first then changing diabetes stuff could then easily need for a change to change the psoriasis stuff yet again. I have had guttae psoriasis episodes a couple of times now. It was very unpleasant and I was very self conscious so I get the urge to control this but with such high diabetic levels I personally think that would be my priority not the psoriasis for right now.
