I'm the original
LD-DM guy. Ashleyk put me onto the idea of morphinan drugs for arresting neurodegeneration when I read on the old Braintalk 1 forum about her apparent success with LDN and PD. After I read about Dr. J. S. Hong's work with these drugs in suppressing mouse brain inflammation by LPS at very low concentrations, and that DM was as effective as naltrexone, I simply went to the store and bought some DM cough preparation over the counter and began taking 5 mg every night before going to bed.
I began taking CoQ10 about a year earlier. This was in response to the preliminary clinical study by Shults in 2001. I am now taking 900 mg of Maker's Mark CoQ10 from Sam's Club each day, in additon to 450 mg generic controlled release carbidopa/levodopa and 100 mg generic amantadine prescribed by my neurologist.
I have progressed very little, if any, since beginning this regimen, have fully informed my neurologist of my DM and CoQ10 use, and he is delighted with my current status. So am I!
