I am considering LDN. I want to see what this neurologist says on Monday. I want to check him out and see if he might be open to that idea.
I do not understand LDN or really know what it is except for what I have read from others who use it.
I am also considering another one on the crabs and I am sure I do NOT want an IM or one that causes the awful flu symptoms. I never got over that problem.
If he is not I have another neurologist on my list.

Thanks!

Have you considered trying one of the other CRABS? None of them agreed with me -- nor prednisone or solumedrol -- but I've been taking low-dose naltrexone (LDN) for a few years now and am very happy with the results. Taking a capsule everyday is so much easier than an injection. Have you done any research about it? There is a sticky on this site with links to other places.

At my last neuro appointment, he said that for the number of years I've had MS, 19 official and most likely 14 before diagnosis, I should be in worse shape and that the LDN must be working. Just a few thoughts for you to consider.....it's way to early for you to completely give up!!

Take care.......
