Hi Irishrover,
Welcome to Psoriasisclub. Hope you will have a nice time with us.
Let me introduce myself, I am one of the DMF-gang, though not on Fumaderm.
4x120 mg and you are seeing improvements, that looks good already.
Fumaderm, or lets call it DMF, is a slow burner. It takes a long time but is able to clear you from Psoriasis very well.
Yes your bowels are a bit looser and bubbly, but that will finally become less, but perhaps not go away fully.
On the forum a lot is written on DMF, search for "dimethylfumarate" and you will find a lot of info and personal experiences.
Taking DMF with a meal, yoghurt and combining it with drinking much water, makes it easier.
Do keep an eye on your blood counts, certainly the lymphocytes in this starting period with the medication. The lymph's probably will go down a bit, but it will come back after a while to an acceptable level with most people.
So take it easy, the result will come.
cheers,
Caroline
