What negative things have you heard about LDN? I'd be interested to know your source because I've been hard pressed to find anything negative about it anywhere....hard as I've looked!! Of course, if it was coming from your Neuro that doesn't surprise me........they don't like anything that challenges their "supreme knowledge of everything neurological"....

I decided to start taking it after reading all the posts in this thread.....and no, my doctor wouldn't even listen to me about it, so I found a way to get it without his blessing. It's not a money making med for the pharmaceuticals so most Neuros won't even research it...even if their patients ask for it.

It's been a huge help to me...helps me with most all of my MS sx, especially the fatigue. I take a Provigil maybe once a week now...and only take 1/2 of a capsule whereas I was taking one or two whole capsules a day before! It's helped with my cognitive abilities, my balance, my tremors. It's just helped me so much all around.....I cannot imagine not being able to take it.
