I havent posted much these last few weeks, but daily check in ! This site has uplifted me so many times, and we need to keep that up for others. I want to put this out-Especially our new comers- if you don't know me. I was very ill from my breast implants that I had inside my body for over 9 years. I was very young, to be so ill. I got them at 19 and had them removed when suddenly was hit with illness at the age of 27. I was diagnosed with thyroid auto immune disease, as well as Rheuamtoid arthrits and many, many neuro symtpoms, atypical ms like. For months before my explant- I was tested, prodded, pricked and scolded by many docs. Being told many times- it was not my implants. "Silly girl" > > I knew it was. I had found this site, and had what all the others did. I was ill, very ill. It was my only hope. I had them removed by Dr Kolb and the surgery took over 6 hours. My capsules and implants were badly infected, and it took hours to scrape the gunk out of me, literally. Getting them out was my only hope to get well. I ended up extremly pleased with the results and immediatly felt better. Not all the way better, but improvement. Afterwards, I then began taking supplements and detoxing kits, as well as detox baths, and walking (I stopped the strenous workouts) changed my diet, tested my hormones and food allergies and have come a long way. > > I no longer have RA, my thyroid condition has improved, ms like symptoms are gone, joint pain gone, fatigue too, and have my life back. I am a 30 old woman with lots of life to live. And energy! I am also pregnant- 7 months and so far, all is well! My 4 year old son, anxiouly awaits! > > I just wanted to say, go for explant, dont be fearful. Our docs are great! And also be discouraged after explant. Some takre longer to heal, depending on the damage and the length of time implanted, some have to try harder, look deeper, read more, like me! But it is for yourself and you are so worth it.I saw it as my healing time and just dove in, and am so glad I did it! > Love ,julie > > > > > > Opinions expressed are NOT meant to take the place of advice given by licensed health care professionals.

, Thanks so much for the encouragement. Now that I've had the

explant (3/30) I still need women like you to carry the torch ahead of

me so I can know the possibilities that may be mine also....

UPDATE

Last night was my two month anniversary on LDN 59 days at 3.0 and 1 day (last night) at 4.5 as per your suggestions of dividing a 3.0 in a cup of juice and drinking half. I experience a general tingling (especially my tongue) and many old sites, much like the FIRST night (at 3.0) without the drama. I noted the changes, then off to sleep with my normal dose of Melatonin. Today I went for my second visit to the most open receptive Neuro. I have every met. I have FIRED two in since my '93 diagnosis of M.S. What has if been like on LDN? Life altering is a very accurate description. If it had not been for this site I probably would have still been searching for that miracle. My first prescription was written by my new primary physician a and I felt extremely lucky that he had NO resistance to it. Now for the rest of the story last month my new Neuo, after looking at my stack of records

and a long list of questions, politely listened to my (then month long) experience on LDN. I included in my record the LDN doctors folder (a godsend) and a list of all supplements I take. He said WOW, you're taking some good stuff. I don't know anything about LDN, but I will look into it. He "prescribed" 2AEP Magnesium and 3 other things from his office and sent me off for a month. Today was the day. He had looked at the information and had NO PROBLEM prescribing the additional 1.5 dose of LDN to bump me up to 4.5. I know from the huge problems encountered by others on this site that this is unusual. He does not endorse any of the CRAB's and uses biofeedback, kinisiology, and other techniques. He is an admirer of Nieper's work, doesn't mind the magnets in my shoes or the meteorite around my neck! He uses his eyes for reading, and his ears for listening! He has over 100 M.S. patients. None of his

patients are on CRAB's. Anyone in Texas who needs a sightly unorthodox Neuro with impeccable credentials contact me directly and I will provide his info. He took a sample of my 3.0mg pills to use kinisiology on other patients to see if this might be of benefit to them. Of course WE know it will be!

Thanks kathy. Kinesiology was a new one on me. I was really impressed especially since he was so open to my journey. I think lots of things work together for those open to receive. I don't understand this new thing but I saw remarkable things from 2 other of his patients. Also he has no love for the NMSS or the pharm company's feeding frenzy! I think this is a healthy attitude, since both of these are toxic to my spirit. Sounds deep huh? Nah, but I have a simple rule. Help, or get out of the way! If you've got any good info on Kinesiology please forward, as I am a baby wanting to learn. I have learned that it matters NOT what your belief system is, some things work anyway!

Traci from Texas- Your one lucky lady to have found such a open minded Neuro. I've found that you must be your own advocate with MS. Since everyone presents so uniquely, there isn't a "one fix" for all! I recently switched from Copaxone to LDN and it's working wonderful for me. I'm on my first month (3.0) Anyone who is having trouble getting LDN prescribed, just call your local compound pharmacy and find out which Docs in your area that are prescribing/supporting it. In my research, I found that Hershey Medical Center here in Pa has had an on going study on LDN for five years. My family doc (a DO) was familiar with the research and was more than happy to work with me. My Neuro from s Hopkins was not supporting my request (no drug reps to romance him, no free lunches or gifts behind a $36.00 a month RX!!!) At any rate, I'm feeling great and don't miss those nightly injections.

hi traci, i am not taking any continuing ed for kinesiology but a general search on the computer should give you much info. my chiropractor uses it to test my organs and for supplements. he is right on all the time as far as i'm concerned. it really isn't that he's psychic as some other therapists say, it's that the human spirit doesn't lie and it may sound far fetched but it is energy and molecules. it is actually very scientific. everything in this universe is energy. it either empowers you or depletes you. when you are tested at various acupressure points the result is an accurate response to what supplements your body needs at that time. hope that makes sense to you. kathy

i just wrote up my history/story with A-K and my chiro. I posted it to my MSWatchers group, I'll cut/paste my story here too.

My A-K testing chiro is very impressed with LDN.

Re: [low dose naltrexone] UPDATE

Tess,

I'm sorry you're hurting so much Tess. I know you must be counting

the days until the hernia surgery is done. I'm guessing that they will

remove the adhesions at the same time? Is there anything the doctors

can do to give you some relief until your surgery?

Hang in there sweetie.

Betty,

Thank you for this update. I have a friend with Lupus and I am going to print

off your post and snail mail it to her.

Hi , feel free to have your friend email me anytime. What

stage and type of Lupus does your friend have? I was at my wits

end, and while I was learning about glycos' a lady emailed me about

LDN, I will forever be grateful to her for that email. I was

begining to think that living as I was, well it was just not any

life I wanted to live. And the hope, the little there was was

grim. I am back now and better than I ever though possible. Tell

your friend how much diet DOES make a huge difference with Lupus, if

I have even one piece of See's candy (my fav:), it will make my CFS

last for days, along with dairy, and red meats I also avoid. I do

eat chicken, turkey, all vegies, fresh and raw, cooked and steamed

and juiced. Crockpot cooking is a great way to make up some chicken

or turkey stews with vegies. OJ is said to induce flares as well as

Oranges, but V-C is alright to take. If you want a list of the

supplaments I take let me know. They all have a role for Lupus. I

do find if I leave any part of my vites and glycos or LDN out even

one day, my body pays for it. It is very important to stay on top

of things. Achol is also a no no for Lupus, it has been known to

cause flares as well, that takes the fun out of a glass of wine

which I used to enjoy years ago. Let me know if there is anything

your friend wants to know and I will do my best.

Sincerely,

Betty

I think your testimonial is nothing short of a miracle. This can happen for many others. God be with you. I am almost temped to try liquid LDN but I am so hyper I don't know if I would get anxiety from the jolt people have spoken of. Kathy

Betty,

Carla has Lupus SLE and it is very bad...liver problems and all. She has no

access to the internet...teenage girl at home so she refuses to have the

internet. Carla knows how well I have done on LDN for my MS but she is so

afraid of hurting her relationship with her Rheumatologist(he refused her the

trial of LDN) by going behind his back and getting LDN. Some doctors have their

patients brainwashed that the patient cannot survive without that doctor's

advice.

I will copy all your info and snail mail it to Carla.

Hi Carolina , I am soooooo happy for you and your boyfriend !!!! I have not received my medication from Mexico , even though I ordered them quite some time ago , may have been slowed by hurricane . I think I will follow you advice about dosage - thanks . Thank you for the update and please continue with them as things progress and I will do the same . in Tallahassee.

-- [low dose naltrexone] update

Hi ,Here's an update on how my boyfriend is doing on LDN.After two weeks he was used to the LDN 3mg, but did not experience a lot of benefits, so he decided to try 4,5mg. Nothing happened after the first dose but after his second dose he saw a big difference. The funny thing is that I asked him at 10pm about the tingling and stiffness in his fingers, and if he saw any improvement. He told me the tingling was only a little bit better than before the LDN, and the stiffness was still the same as before. He sounded a bit disappointed. Only two hours later after he had his second dose he told me all the tingling and stiffness had disappeared. I almost couldn't believe it, but he was so excited about it that I had to. He was happy as a child, saying he had completely forgotten how "normal hands" feel. The next day he had more energy than ever before. Even worked overtime and was not exhausted in the evening. After 4 days all this is still the case. So I'm actually starting to believe this medicine really works the way people say. I'm happy that he did not stop after a few days when he was feeling bad. I think it's really true that everybody has to find out for themselves which dose works best. I'm very curious if you have started LDN yet and what your experiences are or will be. The point I'm trying to make is that I hope you will give LDN a chance even when it doesn't seem to work, or you have problems in the beginning. I also think it is wise to start at 3mg or even less to give your body a chance to get used to it. I hope you will have the same positive experience!Greetz, Carolina.

Are you saying your boyfriend took two doses of 4.5mgs in one night? I

may have read that wrong. Does he take the liquid LDN or compounded?

Hi Rhonda,

He did not take two doses of 4.5mg but it was his second dose of 4.5mg

after he took 3mg for two weeks. So it was the second day he was taking

4.5mg. He is using liquid LDN and also Copaxone.

I think the liquid LDN is much easier. You don't have to convince your

neuro to write a presciption, no fillers are used, it is much cheaper

and easier to vary with the dose. I also read more positive stories

about liquid LDN than compounded, but that may be different for

everybody of course.
