Default Problems walking and question on new drugs

Hi people.

I am posting on behalf of my mother who was diagnosed with MS about 3-4 years ago. It has gotten worse in terms of her shaking a bit, and problems getting to the toilet on time, but the main problem is her walking. She now uses a frame when walking about, and is unbalanced.

She falls over now and again and obviously its very dangerous.

Her legs seem stiff and I can just see she struggles. Its hard to advise her on how to try and help herself so you can imagine how frustrating it is for the rest of the family.

She is currently using LDN after I done some research online as I couldnt find anything else. I know LDN isnt there to help specifically with walking but I thought it may reduce / help any other symptoms. She has never had such "relapses" I hear about with people with MS.

Anyway, my question was basically is there any other drugs she could try that I do not know about? Over here in the UK, doctors that she has been to hadnt even heard of LDN. Anything to help her stability, walking etc... would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for reading.

Darren.
