Hi Quish,
Welcome to Psoriasisclub.
I see Jim has sent you a welcome already, with some hopefully interesting information for you.
The way you husband is feeling sick should be in the form that he may have some cramps in the belly. That is the most annoying for people who start with Fumaderm. You have to get through this.
Also he may suffer a so called flush, he will become red and hot on his skin, starting with his head. This might last for 20-30 minutes and than it will be gone. You may feel a bit of nausea then, but that will finish quite quickly.
If your husband feels different please tell us what he feels.
The lymphocyte count is important, but your derm knows this and he should keep an eye on that.
There may be some interaction between Acetretin and Fumaderm, do you already have a build down schedule for Acetretin?
Please feel free to ask anything. If we know it, we will point you to possible options.
Caroline.
