Hi Fred.
Dont speak so lightly of Fumaderm. I dry reach at the thought of every dose of DMF I take, but compared with severe psoriasis and torturing myself with extreme diets it is nothing. I do avoid some foods like bread and dairy, but I relent sometimes because I like them, and eating such things gives me a measure of my disease. For example, last weekend I ate a heap of pizza and a block of white chocolate. It resulted in some stiffness and possibly a migraine. In times past with a severe disease, a few slices of toast or a few glasses of skim milk would result in a very painful arthritis. I still dont have the guts to drink skim milk, and I wont touch most breads, although the breadcrumbs I use to make meatloaf dont seem to do me any harm.
Cheers,
Bill
