Bill's pure dimethylfumarate thread

[Fred]

A further update. I have been maintaining an 800mg single dose three times weekly. This regime is very effective. My Pasi remains below 0.5, with about 0.5% of my skin with inactive plaques, the biggest being a spot on my right shin about the size of a finger. The arthritis is reduced, but still a bloody nuisance. I would gladly suffer a Pasi of 40 in its stead.

I did another white cell count and got a result around 9, up from around 5.5 when I last checked in October. I will repeat the test over the next few weeks to get a more accurate result as I am sure that I am a bit rusty, then I will have a go at a differential count. If the result is accurate it would suggest that for me, higher dosages taken less frequently are effective against the disease but do not suppress the white cell count to the same extent, and perhaps not at all.

Cheers,

Bill

Thank you for updating Bill, I know what you mean about the psoriatic arthritis. I would rather be completely covered in flakes of psoriasis than have psoriatic arthritis to cope with.

When you say you're getting rusty with the tests, does that mean you're not monitoring yourself properly?  If so get your white coat on and get back in your lab.  

Take care.

Fred.
