OK I am 20 yrs old I will be 21 in August, I have had psoriasis since I was 14ish and I have it from my head to my feet, in patches, I feel like I am the only one with it sometimes. I have been looking all day for clinical trials or some way I can get my meds free, I really want Enbrel, I have heard good things about it, but I don't have any insurace, medicade or anything like that, I don't have a job, well I kind of do I get like 100 dollars every two weeks because I moved in with my best friends mom and I take care of her grandson during the day. But does anyone know of any way of me getting insurace or some assistance?

For the meantime, I would just use fragrance free lotions... and hydrocortizone works amazingly well. I usually use diprolene. But when I can't afford my copay some hydrocortizone totally helps, and try to use stuff in the shower that has as little fragrance as possible. You can shop online for products made for us.

And my 21st birthday is in aug too. Happy birthday to us!
