Hello, I haven’t been in contact for a while. I would like to know people’s opinions on how pet allergies affect psoriasis and PsA sufferers. After having our dog for just over 4 years I decided to have an allergy test and it came back positive for Dog Dander that was in 2021. I developed Uveitis in October 2019 and the Eye Doctor told me that the pet allergy could be responsible. My inverse psoriasis and scalp psoriasis have not settled down I usually get a flare but after some time it will settle down but it’s been over two years now and both inverse and scalp P are worse than ever. The Dog Dander is always in the house and I know that the autoimmune response is not letting up its attacking what it thinks as an invader. My wife will not entertain finding the dog a new home and I am at the end of my tether. Any thoughts and advice would be appreciated thank you.
At first the Dog a little Schnauzer seemed to help with my stress but it wasn’t long before I was having problems with my eyes and then a while later I had nose drip always having tissues on hand and when the Uveitis struck I was wondering what could be the cause. Our dog does not lose any hair a supposedly allergy friendly breed. I’ve never had pets and had Psoriasis for 42 years now and PsA for 40 years I not practically live in the cellar because of the Dog Dander, has anyone else had this problem.
