the end of ciclosporin....the beginning of fumaderm

[jiml]

Hi everyone,

Hope you are all ok, sorry I disappeared but my son my being a complete nightmare and drained every molecule of strength and sanity I have!

I've been off the ciclosporin for a week and on full strength fumaderm for 5 days, my p is flaring up slowly and I've managed to get an infection in it on my right leg so I'm on antibiotics as of today. The pain has been (and still is!) unbearable, I've been in tears on a few occasions. Even applying hydromol is agony at times. My son shoved a shopping trolley into my leg in a tantrum on Sunday (^^^see what I mean!) so there is probably a bruise under it to add in to the mix of pain! I'm fed up of limping and people giving me confused looks when I tell them it's my skin causing it!

I know things will be better soon but I'm finding new spots of p every time I look and I don't know how much more pain I can take before I resort to hacking my leg off!!

MaDbEaR :'(

Oh dear that's not good for you ( children can drain you like that the little dears   )
When you say you are on full strength Fumaderm now is that one a day? Going up to one morning and one night in a couple of days? Is that right?
Sorry you are experiencing such pain  
I hope it kicks in before your painful legs get the better of you (hide the saws )stay strong MaDbeaR it will get better, what about side effects are you managing those ok ?
