Just back from dermatologist...

[mayahandizzysmum]

I just got back from a dermatology appointment and I'm a bit disappointed to be honest.

I've been using Ciclosporin without a great deal of success as well as dovobet (and epaderm) so was desperate to try fumaderm which has been so highly regarded by so many in this group but my Dr was massively apologetic and said he just couldn't prescribe it (he's obviously been told he mustn't) so I ended up with MTX.

Now I'm just praying my liver can take it and my skin only needs a low dose. I'm also a bit worried as I can no longer take Naproxen as well as Codydramol (for joint pain not PSA) and have to up my dose of Codydramol but I am allergic to Codeine so don't want to take any more as it makes my whole body itch unbearably. So my options are...

1. Take a chemotherapy drug and risk going insane through itching.
2. Take a chemotherapy drug and never leave the house cos I'm in agony.
3. Don't take a chemotherapy drug and hide at home without pain or itching but with horrible flakey skin.

Hmmm...decisions decisions lol.

I'm gonna go with secret option 4.Stop over thinking it, hope for the best and eat chocolate.

Anyway just thought I'd catch you up cos you've all been so nice to me xxx
