First go to your search engine and type in Brownwood Acres Tart Cherry Juice

Concentrate...start her to drinking 2 to 3 glasses of that per day for life

ASAP. It's the morphine she's on that she would have to be off of for at least

14 to 17 days to be able to start LDN, even 3.0mg or 4.5mg LDN would put her

into withdrawal symptoms. She can later quit the steroids but get her on LDN

soon after she has been off the morphine for about 17 days. Start her out on

1.5mg LDN for a few weeks and then up the dose.

Hi everyone. I'm on this site because I have MS. I noticed the info about rheumatoid arthritis and my niece was just diagnosed with RA. Can someone forward me the info or a link dealing with LDN and RA. I've been on LDN 3.5 mg about 3 weeks and have noticed a few subtle differences. Nothing too dramatic but I'll take what I can get and continue to pray for more.

Has anyone experienced any relief via LDN for Lyme arthritis, as in swollen joints -- ankles and knees? Thx -- Robin

[Guest guest]

I take LDN for cancer control. My wife started taking it strictly as a preventative measure. She missed about a week's worth a couple of months ago and her hands and knees became so sore she could hardly use them. She started the LDN again and within 2 days all the pain was gone and she has free mobility in her hands. Prior to starting LDN 18 months ago, all her knuckles hurt to squeeze them. She had quit wearing her wedding rings because it was too hard to take them off when she needed to. She can now squeeze the joints without pain.

Hi

I have managed to get 5 different friends onto LDN for RA with great

success. None of their rheumatologists would prescribe it though.

They're happy to prescribe gold or other cytotoxic medications, even

though most of them have limited or mixed outcomes possible.

I have generally encouraged my friends to find a friendly GP, take in

the info I've provided them about LDN and make the decision for

themselves. A lot of people aren't willing to take that responsibility

on for themselves to try LDN.

There isn't really much about RA with LDN in Boyle's book.

Has your friend or her rheumatologist looked at the recent findings of

mycoplasma's being implicated in RA onset? Many people have found

antibiotic therapy to provide " miracle " results.
