Quote:Fred wroteI wouldn't take the oral treatments not even fumaderm even if it was available to me (which it isn't) I hate pills and there is no way I could put up with the stomach problems. I also couldn't go back to Remicade, Enbrel or Humira as I had reactions to them. I go for what is available and what I'm happy taking, I then go by the results and quality of life I'm getting. That's my choice, and I take no notice of what is written in the side effects
Just a brief answer to that....for me and for many others the stomach problems last a couple of months with Fumaderm as your body gets used to the intrusion, since then and for around four years I have had no side effects to speak of apart from the occasional flush
Yes it is your choice but I will steer clear of biological drugs for as long as possible for no other reason than Fumaderm fits my lifestyle, I eat what I like, I drink as much as I want I have as much or more energy than I have ever had, I don't ever suffer with tiredness or hangovers, I don't get infections any more often than the general population
But it's horses for courses and it's for everyone to read as much as possible and make a decision based on their own circumstances......I'm sure had I been put on a bio drug that worked before I went on Fumaderm I would probably be as passionate about it as I am about Fumaderm
