Guest guest Posted July 16, 2005 Report Share Posted July 16, 2005 Hi, I'm new to the group. A quick plug for LDN. I spread the word anywhere I can. My wife was diagnosed w/ MS late 1996. She took betaseron for 15 months. She decided it was ruining the quality of her life so much she stopped. Tried copaxone starting July 2001. Horrible injection site skin lesions. Simultaneously stopped it and started LDN July 2004. I had been pushing LDN for some time and she was desparate enough to try. She had had a debilitating headache every day for 8 months through 2 rounds of IV steroids. The morning after the first dose she had no headache. Since then much improved energy, strength, bladder function, cognitive skills, balance, skin sensation. She's regained feeling in her feet that were numb for 7 years plus to the point she can feel textures. A large lesion high in her spinal cord that was/is very worrisome for the potential for paralysis of the limbs has diminished in size in each of the last 2 MRIs. According to her previous, orthodox neurologist, the last 2 are impossible. We live in Columbia, MO. For those looking for a doctor who prescribes LDN, Dr. Sudhir Batchu in Columbia, presumably in person only, it's a small operation. He's also very good. A relocation to Algoma, Wisconsin is pending and may happen very soon for us. Does anyone know of a Dr. in that area that prescribes LDN for MS? Dr. is in LaCrosse but that's about 200 miles away. I'm hoping for someone in Green Bay. Even Milwaukee, 120 miles, would be reasonable. Thanks very much for any responses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
