I've been taking Low Dose Naltrexone for Multiple Sclerosis for around 6 months now. This drug works within days, and hits Multiple Sclerosis right on the nose. Many of my MS symptoms improved within days of taking it and I suffered NO side-effects other than some vivid dreams for a few days. I believe this drug can help millions of people, let's hope that governments get involved and it continues in its clinical trials.

Please send me a message if you've ever tried using LDN for Lupus SLE. I want to know if it will help someone who has this and she is over 60, diabetic and has high blood pressure. Thanks.

My husband Paul has been on LDN for almost 4 years now. Immediately his fatigue was gone, within a week most of his bladder frequency was gone, within a couple of months he was back to 1 to 2 sports a day. He is 53 years old and doing fantastic. His one new set of MRI's showed no new lesions and his one lesion was no longer enhancing. This stuff rocks.

Hi, This is Aletha from the LDN chat site. If you have not already done so, would you be interested in submitting your short story regarding LDN for the short story book? I am so glad to hear it is working well for you. We have been equally blessed with my husband Paul. All my best, Aletha

hi, I was actually able to find a doctor I found closeby thanks to a LDN forum online. I've been on it for 1.5 months now and I feel great...symptoms have gotten better and no new progression. Thank you.

It helps with symptoms, but will it really help with the underlying disease?!?

It strengthens the immune system, but this should be really a bad idea if you have an overly-active immune disease.

I have Crohns and I suspect that PDN may help a little with symtptoms but its really just too good to be true. I have fallen for many mirages in the past that looked like solutions. That's what happens to us, we are too willing to believe anything.

time4changes-

you will have to change doctors. I saw 4 before I found one that would write LDN for me! Been on it over a year now and wouldn't want to face MS without it.

If your GP won't prescribe it then you should check with your Neurologist. I got mine from my Neuro but my GP was ready to give it to me. Approach your GP with all the info about the drug, the benefits, side effects, etc. and he might reconsider. Good Luck.

Where can I find this if my GP won't prescribe it?

I have been using LDN for 1 1/2 years. I have been in remission since day one and am at the stage I was about 10 years ago. I've had it for 30 years. It started out as RMRL then into Secondary Primary Progressive with unable to walk with a walker or stand withoout help. I slept all the time. Couldn't type, sometimes couldn't hold a fork. With LDN I'm using a walker, have full use of my fingers/hands,energy,and no side effects.I get it from Skips Pharmacy for about .05 a pill and shipping
