My neuro wouldn't rx it about 4 yrs ago when I was looking for it, but he does now.

NO, he did not "care" that I went on LDN, he just wasn't going to rx it cause he had never had any patients that had tried it before ... so he regarded it as "snake oil". Even my doc thought that, and he really only gave in to my "demands" when I threatened to go to Mexico to get it. I still had to put together a very comprehensive "risk assessment" document for him, which took 6 months to prepare with all the brainfog I had at the time.

I think some US Neurologists can be even more head-strong in not rxing it, although I've heard of some who will actually tell their patients "I can't, but go see your GP" . . .

It's YOUR body KM, and only YOU have to live with the consequences of your treatment decisions. If you have researched it fully, and are convinced it is a good option for you right now . . . then just keep fighting till you get it, no matter what "he" thinks.
