Default Ldn

I can no longer afford Copaxone and have heard that LDN can be effective at a much lower price. Does anyone know of a doctor in the Philadelphia/Cherry Hill area that will prescribe it? Thanks

My LDN Doc is in Mechanicsburg, PA. I have phone appts only with him, as do a few others here.

See if your PCP will write a script, if your Neuro won't.

I agree with Sally that you might want to first try your own doctors.

If you have researched this option fully, and come prepared with the information they might need to evaluate this alternative, they are often supportive (well, at least most PCP's are these days).

If you need links to information, let us know.

Default lpnhelp

is the link I've heard about. Neither my nuero or GP will prescribe it for me... my last mri was stable but my symptoms are getting worse. My legs get weaker by the day... constant ringing in the ears and unbelievable fatigue....frequent tingling throughout extremities and forgetfulness

newone, I'm not positive but I THINK if you call Skip's Pharmacy in Florida they'll give you the name of a doctor in your area who has prescribed it. Good luck!
