I continue to go very well. I have been on doxycycline (100 mg twice daily) for nearly two weeks now. The reduction in arthritis is not huge, but it is noticeable and I am testing a reduction of my 800 mg DMF doses from twice weekly to once every five days. I take the DMF as a powder with a sweet drink, and I find this as easy as any other method. While I am sure that the l-cysteine is useful, I have so little psoriasis now (PASI of ~0.1) that I am only taking about a gram a day. I continue to use a tar based topical which I find helpful.
At this stage the challenge for me is to increase the flexibility of my spine. I have been using an inversion table since early 2012, as well as occasional traction to help me stretch. My goal at this stage is to be able to lie flat. Currently I am within 5 cm of this goal and I hope to achieve this before the end of next year.
Cheers,
Bill
