Guest guest Posted May 26, 2005 Report Share Posted May 26, 2005 In my opinion, What would it hurt to try. My sister-in-law has MD in her family. Her sister has it and her brother died from it. She could be a carrier so she and my brother decided not to have children. So like I said at the top, what would it hurt and also,You'll never know till you try. It's just like MS, You never know if something will work until you try. Good Luck. ADJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 26, 2005 Report Share Posted May 26, 2005 Dr. Bihari reports trying LDN on 12 kids. He got good results on 6 and no results on 6. Dr. Gluck says that if kids are on steriods they can't take LDN since they work against each other. I would suggest trying 1.5 mg/day first and progress up to 3.0 mg/day after a few weeks and then 4.5 mg/day if there is no reduction of symptoms. It has been my experience that you can take too much LDN and the symptoms will become worse rather than better. If you do decide on trying LDN, please please report your results.

Guest guest Posted June 12, 2005 Report Share Posted June 12, 2005 Hi: Does someone have Dr. Gluck's email address? I want to pick his brain on LDN treating muscular dysrophy. Dr. Pelofsky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 ALS is not generally regarded as an auto immune disease either but I know quite a few people deriving a lot of benefit from using LDN for their ALS. Given how cheap and safe it is I'd definitely be using it!! Even if it doesn't directly help the MD it was almost certainly give an improvement in general wellbeing.
