Bill's pure dimethylfumarate thread

[Bill]

I had another blood test on Friday. Here are the accumulated results:



So after almost two years, the lymphocytes are back to a normal range. Why? I have had a cold and taken only one dose of DMF in the last four weeks, but I have had worse colds and a four week break without effect. I have also been supplementing with B vitamins, but I have done this before with very little effect. What I have been doing is supplementing with iron sulphate. Specifically, I have taken 325mg twice daily on an empty stomach with 500mg vitamin C. I did this for three weeks and a couple of days. I now take 325/500 doses two or three times a week. The iron sulphate was obtained in the form of a plant supplement from a hardware store. It is identical to the iron sulphate sold in pharmacies, but less than 2% of the cost. With the count back to normal I will only need quarterly blood tests, but I will start donating blood so that I can keep an eye on my iron levels. I can finally resume twice weekly dosing with 800mg DMF. I feel very relieved.
