I'm a skinny 19-year-old girl. I can barely finish my meals because I get full quickly. Whenever I try to eat a little more than usual, I have slight trouble swallowing. Is there some medical explanation as to why I'm like this?

I have severe psoriasis covering my arms, buttocks, stomach, and legs. It flared up after I stopped taking Clobex. I am facing a 12-month pre-existing condition clause and need to obtain 'undercover' treatment until it expires. Could you suggest an oral treatment? I thought of 50mg of pregnisolone daily or triamcinolone, which can be purchased online. What do you suggest?

I have recurring low-grade fever, diarrhea, occasional nausea, arthritis, severe weakness, and easy dehydration. I've had numerous tests with no clear results, and I have a non-functioning immune system. I'm disabled, unable to work, and have gained weight despite previous weight stability. I've been sick since 2003 and need a diagnosis or a doctor who can help. Where should I go for help?
