I love a fighter - into the breach and fingers crossed for the Enbrel doing the business.  Good luck

Thankx Clare, deedee and mustang  

looking at enbrel end of this month.
Had chest xray (clear) and 2 mantoux tests for TB which appear positive even though blood and pee (quantifearon ?) tests are neg.
even so docs suggest 6 months course of isonazid and vit B supplement for 6 months (just to make sure!)..alongside the enbrel.
hellfire!...gonna need some lifestyle changes eg less alcohol  
Had 4 vials of blood took this morn for liver monitoring etc...
the things we go through

pie, come off the ldn slowly gradually reducing the dose. I came off it one go and had a massive rebound and got guttate for the 1st time.

One of the best threads on PHO imo and a mighty read 

Very bad luck that you did'nt get the results that we all hoped for you, but like everyone else I certainly admired the way the approached using LDN in trying to sort out your p 

Look forward to hearing about your trials with Enbrel and fingers crossed you'll get the results your looking for 

It took me many years to find out what worked for me but when you do find something after all that effort, pain and frustration it certainly is worth it.

Good luck pie and stag on chum  Your a top bloke and PHO is better off for having you on here

Thanks for the warning Stu

Not had a massive rebound since stopping...the small impact Ldn had on patches has remained..sofar
back to moisturise/trimovate/dovobet for skin maintenance for the mo.

Thanks Ria & Nick.(aka dad/adonis)
All of your support makes a big diff
