Hi madbear and a great 
to the club, I see Fred has already posted, you will find this a very informative and supportive site given to us by Fred to discuss our psoriasis and treatments, it is a very friendly place and I think it is unique in that it is free from any cyber nasties, spammers or advertising , just a group of psoriasis sufferers exchanging views
Thank you for your comprehensive introduction you have certainly been through your fair share of treatments.
This could be your lucky time though being offered fumaderm is a very positive thing....ok it's not the fastest working drug but it is tried and tested and amongst the safest in my opinion ( the key to safety with all these drugs is monitoring ) as long as you are monitored and can tolerate the side effects at the start you should be ok. It works for around 70% of people and I think the others don't always stop because of the efficacy of the drug, but because the side effects are to severe for them to carry on. It has been used in Europe (Germany)for well over 30 years with very few problems
If you experience bad side effects come and talk about them we always have suggestions to lessen them.
Embrace this chance, it's a great drug I have been on it well over three years and it has totally changed my life for the better , and I just get mild face flushing now as a side effect it's so small now that I barely notice it
Look forward to hearing how you get on taking it and this is a great place for you to chronicle your journey so you can look back and see what works and what others have advised
Thanks again for posting
