MINDFULNESS AND UVB IN THE TREATMENT OF MODERATE PSORIASIS 34 if it is a crisis, I would bother to go. Ehhm. So now (...). Yes, I came quickly to treatment when I asked the doctor. Also, I had time to go to the hospital 3 times a week (snapping with fingers these 6 weeks. So, I did that. But I think it have to be quite serious for me to make the efforts again. That close to the treatment (facility). To the Sun (treatment). Since this is what helps me the most. It is certainly an indicator that I would make the effort. Anne presented her “indicator” that she would do light therapy. In her statement proximity to treatment was a crucial point. Short distances to treatment reduced the threshold for seeking and adhere to treatment. Long distances as in the present situation, makes a “hassle” since it requires more time in traveling between home and the treatment facility. Anne seemed to perceive 6 weeks of 3 sessions per week as quite a lot. She specified that light therapy was the best treatment for her and that leads us to the outcome of light therapy. Outcome. This sub-category is based on all informants with the importance of the outcome of treatment. Most of the patients were satisfied with the treatment and particularly those (Anne, Kaja, Ellen) with spot/guttate psoriasis ( guttate psoriasis): Ellen: The light treatment was perfect, but of course there is a danger of using too much sun. Twenty treatments over six weeks ' time. But I was thinking about (the risk for) moles, and skin cancer, yes. Limited use does not have any high risk for that, one might say. Most of informants had a positive satisfaction with the treatment and one mentioned the risk of light therapy for skin cancer. The risk is perceived as low, since the “limited use” do not present any significant risk of cancer. Some informants were disappointed when the disease came back after the treatment: Frank: This is the third time I have light treatment during these years. I remember especially the first time I came in and then everything disappeared, and then it reappeared. That this was a disappointment, I have to admit. Because, you believe you are going to be perfect. You can't be perfect, really. But true. You get it back. Hell, it appeared again and that's a disappointment. Because I would lie if I said it wasn’t.
