Under-temperature may also be due to causes other than an inhibition of the citric acid cycle.
For example, a thyroid hormone deficiency, but of course also other diseases should be excluded or treated.
If with psoriasis patients the lower (under) temperature does not improve, improvement of the skin manifestations will not be achieved. The treatment with fumarates gives, in the case of thyroid hormone deficiency only result when such patients are using T3 and / or T4, of course, under good medical supervision.
Also other internal diseases can block the effect of fumarate. This block must be removed anyway/anyhow. In such cases one speaks of "comorbidity".
A comprehensive, internally directed investigation may be indicated in such cases. The internist Dr.. F.P.L. van Loon thus has already gained much experience.
Physicians (doctors) who limit their diagnostics to viewing of the skin (skin inspection) may therefore miss important diagnoses with the result that the fumarate treatment does not succeed or gives unwanted side effects.
