Guest guest Posted May 14, 2008 Report Share Posted May 14, 2008 Day 64 and another step up in my dosage. I am now at 4.0 mg at 2230 before sleep. I was at 3.0 until yesterday. I still take a stilnox to go to bed about 2300. I woke up this morning at 0530 but as I wake up early anyway didn't make much difference. I still take ALA and benfotiamine twice a day. I am under the 10mg prednisolone. I plan the last step to 4.5 sooner because it's a lesser step.I haven't seen any real changes in my condition. My wife told me that I seems a bit more energetic; but seen from the inside; I would say it remains the same. I am still waiting for my 4-AP transiting from Canada; probably coming over in a rawboat... But well.Keep Walking! (make me think I shall have a JW )Cheers!Algis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 14, 2008 Report Share Posted May 14, 2008 Hi Algis, I still have my fingers crossed you will be having more symptom relief. I have a friend from LA that is also not getting a whole lot of symptom relief for her MS. She did get her MRI's though and for the first time since being diagnosed she has not progressed with new lesions. So I guess that is something. She has been on over a year. Some people have reported not seeing symptom relief until 6 to 9 months as well. It is such an individual thing. All my best Aletha [low dose naltrexone] LDN/MS Day 64 Day 64 and another step up in my dosage. I am now at 4.0 mg at 2230 before sleep. I was at 3.0 until yesterday.

Guest guest Posted May 14, 2008 Report Share Posted May 14, 2008 >> Hi Algis,> > I still have my fingers crossed you will be having more symptom relief. Well; me too, but at my stage; anything that stop the progress is already fine.There is one thing; taking the opportunity of this post; that I would like anyone with a better knowledge to enlight me with: According to my source of info (wikipedia); methotrexate is not an immuno-suppressant/modulator but antimetabolite etc.... see under:Methotrexate (rINN) (pronounced /mɛθəˈtrɛkseɪt/), abbreviated MTX and formerly known as amethopterin, is an antimetabolite and antifolate drug used in treatment of cancer and autoimmune diseases. It acts by inhibiting the metabolism of folic acid.Now how would that place it in the forbidden list of medicines - I do not contest that list - but why? Thanks to all (and specially you Aletha) for your support,Cheers!Algis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
