Guest guest Posted January 22, 2006 Report Share Posted January 22, 2006 Akiba, You can get Naltrexone from WWW.MEDSMEX.COM It is sold under the name of Revia. 28, 50mg tabs $104.00. This is about a year's supply of LDN depending on your dosage. I am ordering my first supply this week. I have heard nothing but positive things about this source. If anyone has heard otherwise, please let us know.

Guest guest Posted January 22, 2006 Report Share Posted January 22, 2006 I just received my second batch from them. Both times took about 2 weeks from web site order to delivery. The quality seems consistent as far as myself or wife can tell.

Guest guest Posted January 22, 2006 Report Share Posted January 22, 2006 Thank you both, I will be making *my* first order as soon as finances allow (I just moved earlier this month so things're still a wee bit tight) I have been wanting to start it for years, and my right leg is going fast, getting ready to ask the Neuro for a scooter, hopefully this will keep the scooter on the horizon a bit longer.

Guest guest Posted January 22, 2006 Report Share Posted January 22, 2006 Akiba: Just a word of caution to you or anyone considering a scooter eventually, vs a power wheelchair: We have no idea of the course our illnesses will take. 9 yrs ago when I was diagnosed, there was no way I wanted any motorized vehicle (I was managing just fine with a cane), but THANK GOODNESS a persistent salesrep and giving insurance company helped rush things along to get me a power wheelchair, knowing my insurance was about to expire within the month, 6 yrs ago. I've been in that w/c now for almost all of those years, unable to stand or transfer for the last year. In this time, I've greatly appreciated that salesrep for pushing me into a power w/c instead of a scooter. I go everywhere in my Jazzy, over sometimes some interesting outdoor terrain that a scooter (with its low wheel height) would probably get stuck in. I also love its tight turning radius, making it ideal for use inside the house, which a scooter (with its far wider radius) would be hopeless in. Scooters are also not permitted on some busses or trains, in my experience, although I dare them to forbid my wheelchair! In my opinion, you have no idea of the course that your MS may take, so I urge you to invest in a w/c if the tie comes for the long haul; not something you might later regret investing in.

Guest guest Posted January 22, 2006 Report Share Posted January 22, 2006 Thank you for your words of wisdom, and you are totally correct, I do go to outdoor events and figured a scooter would be better, so you say a Jazzy, eh? I'll definately look into that! Thanks!

Guest guest Posted January 22, 2006 Report Share Posted January 22, 2006 Dear Rae, thanks so much for writing about this topic. I am getting ready to purchase something. I was planning on a scooter but also thinking about a chair like yours because I am indoors in my home all the time anyway. I can still stand up but it is getting more and more difficult.I can "wall-walk" a bit around the house and use a walker sometimes although that is getting very difficult to use now too.I dont have any insurance so whatever I get...will have to be very good because I can't get something else later.I dont even know how I will afford tis but I need something now.Some days I stay in my room al lday jsut because it is too hard to go to the other parts of the house. Anyway now I will look more seriously into a power chair.Since I am indoors I realise that would fit better, according to what you have said!

Guest guest Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 I got mine to get me past the mailbox on sunny days, and kept it in the garage at first, before ultimately ramping the house to use it indoors as well on unsteady days. If you have no insurance, you might call your local MS Soc to ask if they maintain a local donation inventory where there may be something that'll do for you. I urge you not to get the cheapest thing that does the job, but if you end up having to buy something, spend a little more to get the best set of features. I love the recline feature on my Jazzy from Pride Mobility, but the newer ones are even better. Pity that you have no insurance though, or you'd be talking about something new...
