RE: Re: CONSIDERING TAKING LDN

[Guest guest]

In regard to Mexican pharmacies, I can't find one that says they offer naltrexone. If it isn't a 'fun' drug

or highly popular, will any of them carry it?

Hi Pete .. I just read your email from a few days ago. Glad you enjoyed the book.First, this is the right place to talk to people with MS on LDN.Endorphin testing is difficult because they fluctuate daily and fluctuate differently for each person. More research is needed in that whole area. I hope your insurance covers the $500.To persuade your Neuro .. I think the best way is to bring all of the information but he won't believe it, so ask him if he thinks it would do you any harm. Most agree it won't so ask him to humor you for a couple of months. He will think you are crazy but remember you are ahead of the game until he sits you down and recommends intensive psychiatric help. If that happens, agree to counseling after a couple of months on LDN .. To be serious what I would do now without question and hindsight and all that .. I would import from medsmex.com and home brew. It is very simple and will always be right. gave great instructions a day or so ago .. very, very, easy with no aggravation. Tell your Neuro that is what you are going to do if he won't help.Noel just had a full physical after 3 years on LDN .. everything is fine .. liver included. He is very healthy apart from his MS he was told. I never realized male physicals were so intrusive but confess after 3 children my sympathy was lacking.Noel has no side efects. The people I know with RRMS on LDN are all doing great with no side effects bar the first week or so when they had vivid dreams and difficulty sleeping.There are links to the LDN conference .. you can back track this board or maybe Larry will point you in an easier direction because I know he has kept them all somewhere. Larry is very organized. Thanks Larry.All the Best > I was diagnosed with MS in March of 2001. Thankfully symptoms have> been mild and stable and limited to varying degrees of numbness in my> hands.
