Here is a link to an article from Mayo Clinic on psoriasis that you may find helpful:
https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/psoriasis/symptoms-causes/syc-20355840
If you go to the Skin Health group header. it will give you a choice to do a search, and you can put in "psoriasis" [without the quote marks], click on the magnifying glass, and see where people have used that word in replies within the group. This may lead you to some interesting conversations you might otherwise overlook.

Sometimes itching can be caused by dry skin rubbing against your bedcovers, or the bedcovers themselves [detergent from washing still left in them, or the material makeup not friendly with your skin]. Sometimes room temperature, or the warmth of bedcovers creates irritation.

@gingerw - thank you! I use fragrance free detergent, fabric softener and toiletries but I am very sensitive to temperatures and fabrics too - especially clothing with labels which I have to cut off always and tend to wear only cotton clothing. Bed linen also has to be just cotton. I even react to pet hair as well as my own hair. If one solitary hair finds its way inside my clothing and touches my skin I start itching and scratching, and this doesn’t stop till I find the offending hair(s)! Even seams and lace can irritate my skin so when I buy a shirt or underwear I have to check for raised seams too!
