Hi Dejibo,

It sounds like you have a wonderful understanding neurologist! How nice. What is not so nice is that you have put up with the Copaxone side effects again. Sorry to hear that. I know how you feel--I was a wimp and just couldn't take the fatigue, spaciness, headaches, anxiety, insomnia and generally malaise on the C. I went on Tysabri. But that is a bigger risk and everyone has to think long and hard about it, whatever decision you make. I do get some side effects on Ty. too.

Don't you wish you were one of those people who seems to magically have no side effects from these drugs?

Anyhow good luck with restarting C. Keep up hope -- those pills are not too far away!

How do you not "qualify" for LDN?

You do what you have to do, Girl..

CHERIE...she's an addict...LOL!!!

I've just never heard of anyone not "qualifying".

If I were Dejibo, I'd do both Copaxone and LDN ... but don't understand the obstacle to "qualifying".

I explained this in another post. I am taking narcotics, and the LDN blocks the receptors that the narcotics I take sit in. Just like in high dose naltraxone, it is used as a rapid detox for heroin addicts, and such, the same receptors are blocked or at least tied up by the low dose. So, I CAN take the LDN, but it would mean that I would have to cycle off my narcotics, and since I have found blessed, overwhelming, life changing relief from the current stuff I am on, I am not willing to switch over to something different to get on the LDN. So, I am not qualified to take it as long as I am on the stuff I am on.

hope that clears it up.

Thanks, Dejibo ... and yes, I understand now.
