Default I just made a deal

I went to my regular doctor because I havent been feeling all that great the past few weeks.

While I was talking to him (and this is the nice doctor who understands MS more than others, his dad has it) I mentioned that I still wanted to try LDN. He said he'd talk to my neuro about it.

A little bit later, he was telling me that I should be doing some exercising. Told me about how his dad weighs about 300 pounds, and that his dad wished that he'd kept that weight off since he's now using a chair.

So, my regular doctor just made a deal with me. He said that if I start exercising a few days a week, and I come back to see him later this month or beginning of next month, that he would consider prescribing me LDN. (he wants to talk to my neuro about it first)

Hopefully the neuro will remember that he said he wouldnt mind if I got another doctor to Rx LDN to me. (neuro doesnt think it works, but he also doesnt think the injectibles he Rx-ed to me work either)

At least the regular doctor is more understanding than a lot of other doctors. His dad having MS, and his grandmother had it too, he seems to at least be more sympathetic towards the crap that we go thru.
