It’s important to partner with your dermatologist to create a treatment plan that’s right for you. But, it’s not always easy to describe what you’re experiencing. Here are a few tips to best convey how you’re feeling and how to make the most of your next appointment.
|
If you felt rushed, try asking for the first appointment of the day. You both may feel less pressure when you’re not sandwiched between two appointments.
|
|
If you felt dissatisfied with how well your treatment’s working, tell your doctor exactly what clearance means for you.
|
|
If you felt too embarrassed to talk about psoriasis and intimacy, practice what you want to say with a friend. It may help you feel more comfortable.
|
|
If you felt overwhelmed by medical information, bring a notebook and take notes. Ask questions and ask your doctor to explain anything you don’t understand.
