    I have gone through the notings given by you reg.Ekakushtha(Psoriasis) from which I am suffering since 10 years. Most of the times I found Round Red Patches in size of one rupee coin through out the body and uneven level of skull with dandruff like powder on top of head. Both Ayurvedic & Allopathy medicines were used vigorously. Now red patches are still appearing on my body. I have constipation problem since my childhood. Sour items are purely against to my health. The exact reason for long standing patches is not known. Always applying external gels namely Winsoria, Chandanadi Tailam etc. I want to procure Amrutbhallatak Aavaleha alongwith Karanjadi Lepa from you immediately. Kindly suggest me how to get it from you, cost of medicine & usage etc per return mail. Hoping to hear from you very soon.I am aged of 22 years female doing some software job at Hyderabad.

    Thanking you,
