Hello Jiml,
Welcome to psoriasisclub.
I think is it strange that your GP and dermo just say you should stop your medication without any explanation.
If they would do some minor research, you could do that also yourself in the posts of psoriasisclub or on Internet, then they would see that there is no reason to stop Fumaderm, unless........ Your lymphosites would go to low. Dimethylfumarates do not interfere with your hormone system, only with your metabolic system. The only risk is a combination of too low lymphosites together with some other klinical elements in your blood.
And as you state, Fumaderm works good against psoriasis.
I would not have any faith in doctors that seem to be so inknowledgable. Basically it means that they have no clue on the working of Fumaderm.
But if you read more on the forum, you will find that I am the stubborn one and basically do not agree with mainly Fred.
