Fumaderm side effects - my worst case senario

[jiml]

A quick update.

I say my derm yesterday for a regular check up. I told her that my P hasn't changed and has gotten slightly worse, though I am still on a very low dose. My bloods are fine 5.1 lymphocyte count so she said to keep my uber slow increase going.

So here is the plan she made for me (morning, midday, evening):

1 - 1 - 2 for two weeks
2 - 1 - 2 for two weeks 
2 - 2 - 2 for two weeks 

These are still the initial tablets so the build up is very slow. Has anyone had a build up this slow before?

No I haven't heard of such a slow build up. It's certainly not the recommended build up as advised by the manufacturer. You will be unlikely to see a change in your psoriasis at such a slow build up . Each initial tablet is a quarter of the strength of a full strength one so in six weeks time it will be like taking one and a half full strength tablets a day
Fumaderm is a slow working drug anyway. but at this rate of increase it will be awfully slow in my opinion .

I think also you may have been given another blood value possibly as they reading of 5.1 doesn't seem right for lymphocytes possibly its leukocyte count

Good luck I hope you soon start seeing an improvement
