Ok, at the moment i'm going to try the Cysteine route ( 1g morning 1g evening in addition to my 6 x 120 mg Fuma ) for 2 or 3 months or more. If i get no joy what so ever from this Cysteine, i then have the choice of going back on MTX and as soon as clear, back on Fuma. This has already been discussed with my Derm Consultant last time ( August )
The other choice is forget MTX and try Bill's DMF powder. I wont have to monitor my own bloods, because i will still be on Fuma, and all the time i'm on Fuma, the UK NHS insist i have regular blood tests, so unlike Bill, i will not have that hassle. All i will have to do is accurately measure the DMF powder, as Bill does.
I have already ordered the jewellers scales that measure 1/10th gram up to 1000 gram, for taking the Cysteine powder i have also ordered, so that should be way good enough to measure DMF, should i try going down that route
Cysteine powder and scales should be here in a about 7 - 9 days
Very interesting to read that you are going along the Bill-road. I must say that that is my backup route, or escape plan, when it ever would go wrong with the delivery of my medication.
Keep us posted
