Dermatologist said this really my only option as metotrexate not working anymore and im too far away from hospital for light therapy. The system here is that you pay for all your prescription medications up to 144 euro a month and then anything over that is paid for my the health service. Dermatoligist said the cost of fumaderm would be over the threshold so I'd be paying the upper limit of 144.
I am going to have to see if I can get a medical card (entitles you to free gp visits and prescriptions at 2euro50cent.) but that could take ages and probably wont be successful so
Hello..
I wish u luck on whatever u decide on. It's always a trial by error for each individual . It's what works for you. There's is a list of bios online to try ask UR doc.Sometime s the pharm co. That makes the bio drug will help u pay for their bio drug. Contact the pharmacuiducal co thru UR pharmacist for coupons or discounts for payment for Fumaderm or ck online. They actually have a fund set aside for cases like this.
I'm on Apremilast for PSA. HAD psoriasis 3 different types since childhood. Also had another bio drug called XIAFLEX, helps Dupuytrends contracture where Hands tendons that thicken and the fingers curl into a fist and freeze. Much like RA,DC also distorts the fingers Knuckles and tendons. My hands are slowly straightening out with Xiaflex.
Do UR research find UR place where you feel safe or comfortable before you take any drug.
