That is the question in most MSer's minds....what if I do, what if I don't??

The MS Meds could possibly help to slow the progression of dissability, but at what cost, now or down the line. If I don't take them, am I just asking for dissability progression?

This is the reason I gave Avonex and then Copaxone a good college try and then dropped them, when they didn't slow my progression, like hot potatoes, with no regrets.

LDN is not a NMSS approved Med for MS, but it is my MS Med, for 6 yrs now. The only thing that has progressed in me is my age.. I don't know if it's the LDN, but it is the only MS med I have taken that actually makes me feel better. At such a low dose (4.5 mg), and the fact that it leaves the body within 24 hours, I don't worry about the long term effects.

My advise...give your Med a try and if it doesn't help you to feel better and/or stop your disability progression, drop it and try another, until you find one that works for you.

Good Wishes, Turt..
