Hello I'm a newby. Nice to meet you all

[jiml]

I am also a sufferer of psoriasis. Have had this horrible affliction for bout 12 years now and nothing has worked so far apart from light treatment but this was only short lived. I am now starting Fumaderm only on my 4th day. Today developed a red prickly heat rash on chest, back and arms for bout 20 mins. Is this what they call flushing? Can't wait to hear from anyone

Hi Audrey great to see you on here I love to meet a fellow Fumaderm user. You are right about psoriasis it is an awful disease. But hopefully suffering with it will be a thing of the past as Fumaderm should work and give you a clear skin
I'm pleased you have posted and I really hope you have success with Fumaderm the way I have
Yes the prickly heat thing is probably due to the Fumaderm. it seems to last up to half an hour then subsides .... You are very early in your treatment on your fourth day you are probably on Fumaderm initial which are the starter dose... You will get these flushes but do take your tablets with meals and plenty of fluid it should get the active ingredient through your stomach into your intestine where it should do its work. Be aware you may get stomach cramps but they won't last long and all the side effects do get better as your body gets used to it
Do come back often and keep us updated on your progress. We have a few Fumaderm and DMF users on here who will be able to offer advice on what works for them
