Fumaderm advice wanted

Hi Jim and everyone.

Tried to message you Jim directly but the computer wouldn't let me. Hope you are well.

Onto 4 tablets now but getting some nasty side effects. Stomach cramps and diarrhoea mainly. However, no stomach cramps today as of yet.
SKin not clearing as quickly as I had hoped. Does it suddenly clear or is it a gradual process and when did you notice a difference. I am beginning to
think it will never clear. Some days it looks better and others it doesn't.

Cathy, the effect is gradually. At a certain point you will remark that there is a change. This will take some time, while the change is taking place you can perhaps slower build up, or keep it steady. Then just keep it steady for some months and gradually the psoriasis will become lesser.

Hi Cathy sorry your pm didn't work I got an empty one but thanks for trying  
Nasty side effects are a nuisance but the positive is that it's  an indication that the medication is active on your system, you will soon start to see some positive effects I'm sure, then you will begin to believe that the side effects have been worth it ..

. But as Caroline says if they are too much to bear take a step back or don't increase as fast because we are all different and there is no rush, the fact is although it seems a slow process you say yourself some days you begin to see a difference,....... when it does begin to work, with me I began to clear quite quickly after it started,
you have come this far I'm sure you will begin to reap the benefits soon now, and with the advent of summer you will have another assist with the sun
Stay strong and come back often
Jim
