No he has not been on that - I think it is a steroid? Originally he was on hydroxychloroquine (hope spelt it right!) but the GP seemed to think this could have contributed or even caused the psoriasis so they had to take him off it. But we think the Lupus is now dormant so the real problem is the psoriasis. Light therapy was considered but of course, that could re activate the Lupus. Various creams have been tried including steroids. We do seem to be going round in circles, so I am really hoping he can get some relief with the fumaderm although Dermo did say it could take a few weeks to kick in especially with building up the dose.
