Default Hi from a newby

Hi, found your informative web site by accident while looking for a LDN prescriber
in Colorado, they all seem to fear someone cutting into thier pharmacy kick backs. I read a post by Sally C stating that she could help. Sally when you read this would you please help me find someone.
I have had MS since 1994, tried all prescribed drugs with no relief , and just heard about LDN.
Thanks
Kathy P

Hello Kathy and to NeuroTalk.


I'm sure Sally will be on soon to give you some information on LDN. We also have another member, LarryLDN who can give you some information about LDN.

Again, welcome!

Hi Kathy (... thanks Snoopy for the message),

I've been on LDN for about 2 1/2 yrs, and have done very well on it. I agree that some doctors can be stick-in-the-mud's about prescribing, but if it ends up working for you, it is well worth any amount of effort to get it.

I was not doing well for a couple of yrs (had MS for 14yrs at that time). Generally speaking, my body and medications don't agree with each other, so I was about out of options at the time. I didn't have any huge expectations, but fortunately it helped a lot with symptoms. More importantly my EDSS went down a whole point and I've remained relatively stable since I started.

My doc wasn't keen to give me a rx either and only agreed to it when I threatened to get it off the internet. Even then, I had to do up a "risk assessment" document (which took 6 months cause I had so much brainfog), but that document was the clincher for the rx. Several people have found the information I put together helpful in getting their doctors on board. I will send you the link by pm.

Good luck, and when you do get the rx, please feel free to pm me if you have any questions or concerns.

Cherie
