[split] Dimethylfumarates and Psoriasis

[Caroline]

We (with my doctor) are thinking to wait now a little longer, 720mg daily is quite big regarding to experiences of other people... I am just so scared and so afraid some new patches would come out... Nothing EVER helped me well, only one time - bilogical (Humira) - I was totally clean within 10 days after 1st injection, I could tell it was disappearing in front of my eyes.

I know I have to be mentally stronger, however my self esteem is bad. My experiences with MTX / ointments / lamps are really bad too...

Now: 7th week, seems better, no significant improvement in terms of size of plaque / patches so far. I note them thinner though. (Or I want to see them thinner )

Joana,

Just keep faith. The fact that you seem to handle the medication well is already a good sign.
I use 720 myself. A (psoriasis) friend of mine is using 8x 120mg, so even more, without any problems. And I know of people that use even more than that.
