It is kind of a slow reacting volume knob you are turning.
If the psoriasis comes up, you increase a little. Then, because of the moderating effect the activity will go down again, and then you can decrease again a bit.
All the time, you need to check your lymphocytes at regular intervals, certainly when going up as the lymphocytes will go down a bit in reaction and have a minimal bottom line where you need to stay above. Jims levels are very good, so for him it is easy to turn the knob higher if necessary.
The trick is to find the exact amount of medicine where you will stay stable. But that may be quite difficult as there are often external factors, the weather for instance, or a cold, or whatever, that will push to that stability.
