another visit to charing cross hospital.

update.

well, i met with my dermatologist again and he said i should continue on with the topical creams & PUVA AND take some tablets called AZATHIOPRINE which apparently has some very undesirable side effects sometimes..

well i guess we'll see how it goes.

thanks, i'm not too worried about the tablets as daunting as they sound because he said he will ensure i'll be okay to continue taking the tablets. i had a blood test yesterday and i will have another blood test in 2 weeks time to see if the medication is working correctly.

i've had about 17 PUVA treatments so far and the only thing that's changed is the top of my head has got more rough.
