Hi To All.

I have had this terrible disease for over 25yrs,and in that time have had all the treatments available. No matter what i take the psorasis always comes back,and at the moment i am at breaking point as my plaque psorasis it is worse than ever I am presently on my 3rd week of fumaderm ,and feel if i have permanent sunburn and prickly heat,has anyone else had these symptons ?

Hi Wangfordboy...nice to have you on board so    to the club ....it's a while since I was at Wangford being a Norfolk boy    but I do pass through there  sometimes
Make yourself at home here, we are a very friendly group and are happy to receive and offer advice to each other......

I'm also a Fumaderm user and I have not experienced those side effects I do get hot flushes and they were worse at the start of treatment
If you are just at the third week that means you should still be on Fumaderm initial and three white tablets a day  but if you are finding this to much as your body is resisting it go back a step and slow down the increasing dose for a week..
Are you taking your tablets with meal?
Are you taking plenty of fluid with them I usually have a pint of something with mine  
You could try eating some yogurt with your meal
Never take on an empty stomach
But if the prickly heat persists check with your dermatologist
Click the link to read the leaflet
Fumaderm leaflet has a list of side effects

I'm sure there will be others with helpful ideas, but if you can bear the side effects they will get less and then you have a high chance of getting clear....as I have been for over 4 years now
