You could be lucky.
I always keep a tube of Dovobet as its the only thing that can help on the rare occasion I get a flare up between my toes, I put it on every other day for a week and it seems to work. But that's me, and it's not the recommended way of using it and it has thinned the skin between my toes.
I'm not sure about Eumovate but I have found in the past it's best to slowly wean yourself off of Dovobet to avoid any problems, if you suddenly stop using it it can cause a flare.
Yes, that also a worry. Sudden withdrawal, but i'll try and be a bit more smart about it.
Good thing ..a letter came through from the hospital and my bloods are 100% ok, and now i can reduce the blood tests to either every 2 months or 3 months instead of once a month
Be careful reducing the blood tests Bassman. I still have mine taken monthly at my doctors surgery, it's easier to follow the trends then, and regular monthly tests will pick any changes before they get serious and dose can be adjusted accordingly
The reduction in BT's was on the Dermo's advice, so i dont really see a problem, Jim
I'm sure your derm is confident it's not going to change suddenly, but if it was me I would be uneasy
Read the guidelines here where it mentions " laboratory monitoring "
