Almost there

[Caroline]

The more I think about this the sillier it is. I'm a little cranky now as I am nearly seven days without DMF and the PsA is starting to kick in. The arthritis is debilitating to me to the tune of a few hours a day. Basically my spine seizes up and needs to be stretched out a few times a day, which in itself is a slow and painful process. Yet what I feel is nothing compared with what many on this forum are going through.

In contrast the skin trouble is nothing. I could not imagine how a few spots could cause any significant concern, except perhaps with the hours of pointless ogling that might result for a vain teenage princess. Yet a grown man with a couple of tiny spots and maxed on fumaderm first wants to sprinkle more DMF on his breakfast cereal, then wants to go back on mtx, which he copes with better than anyone I have ever heard of.

Maybe I am just very cranky because I am in a fair bit of pain now, but the whole scenario sounds crazy.

Apologies,

Bill

Hey Bill,

Are you by any chance of Dutch origin? This is way to direct you know.

But he has a point there Bassman. If you are doing well on DMF, and have only tiny spots, then stick to it leave it there. From my personal experience you may be lucky that you don't have psa. So I can understand why Bill reacted in a Dutch way.

And Bill, I will get you for that "vain teenage princess" ...

But hope that the DMF will be able to control your PsA very quickly again. Personally I always are getting very scared when I am feeling something in my hands or feet. I feel soo lucky to be in the one and only country in the world where one can get my medication and where there are at least some doctors and dermatologists who understand quite much of psoriasis.
