Sorry if the Terry comment scared you . . . it was meant to be a visual of where I ended up.

Of course, I did get past it too, and that had been getting progressively worse for several years (with no sign of potential for improvement throughout that period).

LDN is Low Dose Naltrexone. It's a drug that was brought out more then 30 yrs ago for drug and alcohol addiction . . . but at a very low dose, has been anecdotally successful with MS and our symptoms as well. Last I heard it couldn't be taken with any other CRAB except Copaxone though, but they were recently doing trials with the interferons and I haven't heard yet how it faired as far as safety, etc.
