Can I ask this is week 10 or 11 for you if my memory is any good . So are you taking6 tablets a day?
If so you should start to get consistent results soon with clearing ,
Which side effects are bad for you is it cramps or diarrhoea . Ignore people with ignorant remarks.... It could be them next
Are you seeing much change in your skin?
Hi now on week 10, just taking 3 tablets thought this was full dose? It,s diarrhoea and that funny head flush which sometimes come with a skin reaction - its like heat rash from my waist upwards, my skin burns and itches for about 2 hours.
My hands are much better, but my feet seem to change on a daily basis from really quite manageble to some very painful cracks a day later. i am using Healan tape as well which does seem to help, but is only temporary
You are not on the top dose but if you are struggling on three tablets I wouldn't rush to increase but the maximum dose is six tablets a day ... Have a read on this link Fumaderm leaflet it may be a help to you
If you can stick the side effects and can increase the dose I am sure you will get clearance, as you are showing signs of improvement
Do you know what your blood lymphocyte count is and if your liver and kidney function are ok
If they are good you could increase the dose with the dermatologists approval
