You should consult your physician before starting the fast especially for water fasting!!

Take a lot of rest during your fast; you should not experience more stress and don't do any work related to stress.

If you experience any symptoms like headache, dizziness, nausea etc. then immediately consult your doctor!!

Ychi,
water-only fasting will most always make a skin condition such as Psoriasis worse before it improves, because the skin is an organ of elimination, and where Psoriasis is an outward expression of this.
If you continue to reduce your toxemia via fasting and careful dietary and living habits in between, the Psoriasis will disappear in time, and esp' so if you eat only according to genuine appetite, and limit your diet to fruits and non or slightly starchy vegetables in the short-term.

During the nutrition cycle of taking in raw materials from the outside, the body will use those nutritional elements it needs and eliminate the remainder, but problems arise when these metabolic wastes are retained or not eliminated properly or efficiently, resulting in toxemia. So good lifestyle habits (including a proper diet, adequate sleep/rest with some exercise and so on) will lead to the total elimination of this toxemia, and in your case eradicate your psoriasis completely.

as Chris has replied, the skin condition naturally gets worse before it gets better; so the red does not seem unusual. --From my perspective, The Master Cleanse is a fine/good idea, better than going back into eating, and it will keep you in cleansing mode, while giving you a little 'padding'.
Try it for some days, then return to water if you feel confident. Try to familiarize yourself with what is common for people to experience on a water fast. Chris' RR'd posts usually are great reading. The tiredness is common. As is not sleeping, or sleeping much less. The more you know what to expect, the less you will be upset by any of it--one thing is certain, it's all temporary. anyway, try to take it day by day. EFT -emotional freedom technique- is often suggested, and is free to learn. Do a search on it... When you're resting is a perfect time to learn how to do it, get good at it, and to work through some of the ups and downs; even some of the deeper causes and so forth...

best,

Thanks so much for the info. It is greatly appreciated.

I did see my primary doctor before I even had serious plans to water fast. She did a wellness exam(with blood work and urinalysis). She did tell me that everything was normal, nothing to be concerned about. I discussed water fasting, she didnt necessarily agree with it, but she didnt say that I should not do it. She said that my wellness exam was normal, and she had no worries, and she didnt think I would have any problems if I choose to do that, then it is my choice.

In the past, my doctor has discussed setting me up with a dermatologist, which I declined. I have already spent many years seeing a dermatologist regularly, and just got tired of trying all the various topical/oral medications that didnt work, that had so many side effects. My previous dermatologist wanted me to try biologic meds, and I just wont take any kind of medication that will suppress my immune system to get some kind of temporary relief for my skin. I want a REAL solution, not a temporary fix. I thought for many years that this condition has no cure, except to take medication for the rest of my life. Now I know this is not true. I know that I have abused my body over the years. But, I am making changes now. I am confident and I am not worried whatsoever. I feel so much better now than I did a couple of days ago! In my opinion, I know that this will be life-changing for me.

But, I am thankful to have Curezone to educate myself.. I have learned so much, in the short amount of time I have been searching the forums, along with the knowledge/advice from all of you.
Thanks.
