Jims continued use of Fumaderm

Jim, I am very happy to hear that you can enjoy the sun and surf, and it does make me try to think what I did other than get more sun. As you point out, there are many unknowns. I am looking forward to my next blood test in a few days, and consequently hope to increase my dose. What a good drug!

Keep well, mate.

I look forward to hearing the results of your blood test and hope the lymphocyte count has increased enough that you are comfortable increasing your dose  

Yep I have to agree it beats all the other treatments I have had throughout my life. I have never experienced such a long period of clearance...... I just wish I had got it earlier in my life. As my disease shaped my life and I would have made some different choices, mainly sport related which I have always yearned to be involved but my self consciousness held me back

Been to have another blood test with the nurse today, so got my Late July  results to add here .

I've enjoyed a fair amount of sun on me this summer and a lot of swimming in the sea although with the autumn arriving early and the coast feeling cold, I don't foresee me having many more dips this year

My psoriasis is still good and I still have the stubborn spot on my elbow that looks as if it might get flakey but a drop of coconut oil on it and you can't tell it's there ....I think I have a little in the folds behind my ears it's not much but I'm aware it's very dry if I don't moisturise

Important Blood results are
Lymphocytes 1.26
Neutrophils 5.91
Both well within the normal range

Liver and kidney function good

On an aside my Prostate specific antigen ( PSA ) is still undetectable so my cancer is staying away

Great news Jim especially about the prostate problem.

How is the psoriatic arthritis? I remember you mentioning it being mild I'm wondering how it d going now the cooler climes are coming.
