I am worring that my newly started Menopause will make my psoriasis even worse.Everywhere my skin is pierced or cut i will get a psoriasis spot. My MS requires three shots a week so you can imagine how awful I already look and feel. The six injection sites I use are a mess. Now I have hot flashes in the day, my tempeture rises really hot for one or two minutes, Night sweats that are so bad when i get up in the morning I can't stand to be in my own skin, that feeling lasts for about 2 hours no matter what I try and it's so so horrible.So my question "Is anybody out there who has MS and is using Rebif injections and also has Psoriasis AND Menopause."

Please research MAGNESIUM for your hot flashes and menopause. Check with doc first. Start out with low doses and build up, as high doses immediately will cause diarrhea.

While taking the combination of medications it was found that nexium enhances the strength of valium.

Therefore I was taken off the nexium as it was causing a lot of issues
