My HOORAY for LDN

[Guest guest]

I

joined this group well over a year ago and am pretty much a lurker so do not

post much but did want to share some wonderfully awesome news!

I

was diagnosed with relapsing/remitting MS in October of 2007 – my neuro

put me on Copaxone and I religiously followed that therapy for almost 1-1/2

years. I was still having some symptoms and did not like what the daily

injections were doing to my body both inside and out (Copaxone was eating away

at my fatty layer and left behind large depressions at all injection sites).

When I asked my neuro (in January 2009) of any other options he told me I had

none … yeah, right … I didn’t believe it. Thus began my

quest to take my health into my own hands and I began some earnest research

into alternative treatments for MS. This research lead me here. I

started taking LDN in July of 2009 against the wishes of my neuro who would not

prescribe it for me – thanks to this list, I found a great Doctor and get

my LDN from Skip’s Pharmacy. I have been taking 4.5 mg successfully

since the beginning and feeling fabulous.

Fast

forward to last Thursday … my neuro has been wanting to get an MRI done

as it has been three years but I truly believe he was ever curious about this

mystery drug I was taking and its effects on my health/MS. I had not seen

him in over a year and in the mean time I had lost 18 lbs. and am back at the

gym lifting weights and feeling like a champ. I truly believe he thought I was

going to come rolling into his office in a wheelchair because the look on his

face when he saw me in my “fighting” condition was priceless to say

the least. My MRI was 3 hours long as they did it with contrast and

without … I have been feeling like a million bucks with no symptoms but

still was nervous about the results as you just never know what is going on

inside the ol’ skull, ya know?

I am thrilled to report that my MRI results showed that the few minuet lesions

I had in 2007 are still there but so very faint … no activity … no

new leisions … nuthin. (= Let me tell you, I wanted to jump

up out of my chair and do the “nanner-nanner-poo-poo” dance but I

handled it with grace and dignity. The only thing my neuro could say were

things like “WOW” and “incredible” and “fabulous”.

He still did not ask any questions about LDN and ended our visit with “I

am so glad that this treatment is working for YOU”. <big

sigh>

So

there you have it … I feel vindicated in my choice to take control of my

MS and thanks to LDN, am feeling like a rock star (and now have actual proof)

that it is all good! Just had to report in ….
