Most interesting to read your post. Although I was just dx with MS

in Feb., and have been on 4.5mg LDN for about 80 days now, I went

back many months reading old posts. I don't recall any other posts

from anyone in the pharma industry. No doubt we all fall prey to

manipulation by the media, and certainly the whirl of ever spinning

political agendas, but don't judge many of those here too harshly.

They may have been as disappointed as I was with how false my

perception of modern medicine was, and with the attitude of some of

the Doctors that they have seen.

Having said this, I am sure most here would like to know how you can

help with seeing Clinical Trials for LDN (and MS to start). Perhaps

you could lay out a couple of scenarios (given your expertise) as to

how best one could see LDN become an " approved " treatment for MS,

and how best we as a group can help. On a personal note, I'd like to

hear your thoughts on Off Label prescription drug use (given how

rampant it is - including LDN).

We are all individuals here with differing opinions, but with common

challenges and common goals. Some end up here (using LDN) after

trying almost everything else. Others, like me, read all about CRAB

drugs and decided they were not the best choice. Either way, we

would all like to be using LDN in the safest and most effective way

possible. If you read back you'll note that dosage, fillers, willing

Doctors, drug interations and several other issues pop up regularly.

Another thing that pops up regularlry is testimonials! Clearly there

is a legitimate need here.

If you can help, I believe we would all like to hear your thoughts.

Best

Alan
