Meff did give me some warning about the Soriatane (a super-high dosage
of Vitamin A) but it has been the best thing to work on the psoriasis/eczema
on my soles and palms. A miracle, and then the side effect of decreased vision
especially night vision hit. I saw on the insert that a return of
your level of vision isn't guaranteed to return. I stopped the Soriatane
over a week ago and I think my vision is getting better, though my
eyes stay wet, which wasn't the case before. However, the elimination
of soriatane is very dramatic, the soles started cracking again and
now even my palms are starting to itch again. Looks like my dermatolgy staff
is well-acquainted with this course of events because they're casual
about the vision, my vision, returning. I did find out from them
that except for high cholesterol that my blood results weren't abnormal.
I thought that they would be if the medicine had been strong enough
to affect vision negatively. I am going to an eye doctor in a couple
of days but I also feel the loss of the Soriatane.

I see people sometimes offer ideas to make conditions like psoriasis
better. I only have it so far on soles of my feet and to lesser extent
on palms. As anyone can imagine the soles of one's feet is not a
pleasant place but at least people don't sse it. One other
side effect I might mention was badly chapped lips from the medicine;
That's resolving rapidly.
