Bill's pure dimethylfumarate thread

[Bill]

An update. My latest blood count (12/12/16) gave a lymphocyte count of 0.6. I developed a cold a couple of days later so fortunately I have only had a couple of doses since. It is an odd development as I have not been changing the dosage. The only thing that has changed is that I have been getting more sun exposure, so I suspect that this is the cause. I will be avoiding the sun and taking a d3 supplement instead. I had a further blood test today, and dependent on the result I may be on a drug holiday for the next six weeks or so. My disease is very well controlled with skin coverage less than the area of a finger. The arthritis is well controlled also.

I did take a wrecking ball dose of 1200 mg a couple of days ago (oops!) and was hoping by this means to go to weekly dosing. Obviously this strategy will go on hold until my lymphocyte count recovers.

Cheers,

Bill
