How Can psoriasis Along With ADD Be Treated?
My 12 year old son is so skinny. He has absolutely no meat on his bones. He has been diagnosed with ADD and takes medication (5 mg in the morning and 5 mg at noon). He is a very picky eater. Several years ago he was also diagnosed with psoriosis. I m just concerned about his weight. He eats lots of peanut butter and drinks Special K shakes daily. Any ideas?
