Guest guest Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 I recommended it to 3 people and they all went for it... One for food cravings and she's not real diligent with it. Taking .5mg here and there. One with CFS and she's having a hard time with the dosing; it makes her woozy. She's not trying right now. One with MS who is doing fantastic...started at 1.5mg, then to 3.5 mg and now 4.5mg in just about 3 months. joyce [low dose naltrexone] that ldn story again Hello againI meant to ask this in last emailHow many people have you recommended LDN too?How many went for it?Chris No virus found in this incoming message.Checked by AVG - www.avg.com Version: 9.0.733 / Virus Database: 271.1.1/2665 - Release Date: 02/03/10 00:09:00 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 I've recommended it to lots of people but only one has actually used it. Latest one is an online friend in another state who I have actually met and whose dad is dying of an inoperable brain tumour - they only found out last week. I've sent him info on LDN but I get the impression from things he's said in chat sessions that they probably won't try it. No idea why not.............. cjohns1@... wrote: > Hello again > > I meant to ask this in last email > > How many people have you recommended LDN too? > How many went for it? > > Chris > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 I've noticed this myself.. No one wants to believe there's something cheaper, safer and more effective than the drugs they're paying thousands of dollars for.. And I just don't get it! It's like it's too good to be true.. and I understand the feeling after everything MS patients deal with - but what I don't understand is why people won't just give it a try? Or at least do some research? My boyfriend has a client who has a family member with MS and they have it pretty bad. He mentioned how I have it and they said " Oh no! How's she doing? " And he said " She's doing great actually. She's on LDN - have you heard about it? " And they just blew him off saying " Oh we've tried everything " . Uhh no you haven't. But he didn't want to push it because he didn't want to upset them. It just makes me sad honestly. When I first discovered LDN I wanted to tell everyone about it.. then it became clear that most people won't hear it. So I am just grateful everyday that I came across that random comment one day when I was researching mono and MS where someone mentioned LDN and how it helped their wife and suddenly my future became much brighter! I feel bad for the people who don't follow through on it, but that's their decision. I'm just so happy I made the right one! > > Hello again > > > > I meant to ask this in last email > > > > How many people have you recommended LDN too? > > How many went for it? > > > > Chris > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 Yes, me too, I am grateful for the fact that I live in England, that my everyday language is English and no longer German (my mother tongue) because that's the only reason I found LDN. My sisters and my friends don't find it. My brother was already too ill to take notice when I talked about LDN, when he was terminally ill with cancer (and eventually died at 54 last summer) There was nothing I could refer people to, nothing in a language they understood. I did make a website, which does get visited and yes, some people have taken it up and managed to get Naltrexone (which is available everywhere). But they have the same fight, just even tougher because of the language barrier. Naltrexone is even manufactured a few miles from where I grew up, but to get hold of it you need an educated doctor who can think outside the box. My mother's got one. She's on LDN now. It stopped her twitching feet and her itchiness and gave her energy. She tells everybody about it and hands out leaflets I made. But she's nearly 80, we are all just little people often too occupied with our illnesses to look further. We on this list are lucky. I've noticed that people who were diagnosed a while ago have resigned themselves to their destiny. They no longer look further and it takes a lucky coincidence for them to hear about LDN. That's why it should become first line treatment for GPs to offer to anybody with a possible need. There's no harm done so give it a chance. But to sit back and say: " I don't care, I've got it and to h... with the others " is so selfish.
