'newbie' here - would like to hear from others who are alone,, and ones on LDN

[Guest guest]

please email me with any tips on living with this !! I was dx'd in

sept. 2005, am 52 and am sometimes at my wits end - my insurance with

aflac expires in oct., and social security has already turned me

down! am paying necessary bills, but have gotten little help from ms

society, am still trying with ms foundation. have no family living

close by, and friends can only do so much. would appreciate any advice

anyone has to give. am taking 4.5 mg LDN /day (night), but my life is

so stressful because of the financial situation, I haven't seen any

results - only been on it for a couple months.....doctors seem to

think I am in the small percentage of those with Progressive MS - they

say I may have had it for years, and sx's were so 'subtle' that I just

didn't pay attention to them. Most of the lesions are on my brain,

and a spinal tap confirmed that it is definitely MS. Please post

replies here, or email me at as1953@... - I'm dealing with it ok,

but am not driving because left eye is affected, and I hate feeling so

isolated. I look forward to hearing from you. Annette is my name.
