Ldn?
 

Does anybody here know anything about LDN?

Hi there bwmbagus, and welcome to NeuroTalk.

We have a number of members currently taking this medication. Most of them are people with Multiple Sclerosis and I'm sure no-one would mind answewring any questions you might have.

Have a look at this LDN check-in thread: http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/thread71392.html

Ldn?
 

I ask because I am a founder member of LDNNow, the UK organisation to get LDN proven and into regular front line use, so I am also a bit of an expert on LDN too, and have very deep understanding of the immunology, biochemistry and other aspects of the use of LDN.
I have SPMS and it has stopped my progression completely, but it cannot stop the neuropathic damage unfortunately, but then that is due to glia response, particularly the dgrowth of astrocytes. I was too far gone before I found LDN for it to completely prevent all problems as it seems to for many.
We are working on =every angle to get the UK government bodies to fund and do the trials and get this drug finalise, so if you or anyone wants informtaon ofr to help us, ** let us know, also sign our petition to the EU please and watch the Dr Chris Steele MBE video.
Cheers

Considering what you say, may I suggest that make a new thread on the MS Forum, and copy your post to there? You'll probably reach a broader audience by having it in both places.

I don't think of LDN as an MS drug, it is a drug for cancer and immune system dysfunction issues really. Any suggestions where I should post on that line. Neurologically, LDN has been reported to help with MS, Alzheimers, Parkinsons, and possibly a number of other neurological complaints. Many systemic illnesses have their roots in the natural decay of endorphins with age combined with stress or primary infections leaving behind a secondary effect that is normally handled by a functional immune system. Chronic stressors stimulating cytokines cause all kinds of problems, including fatigue, immune dysfunction and vulnerability to infection. These can often be at the root of neurological issues. Raised endorphins though can correct these chronic problems and restore normal function.
I can talk about this, but please indicate appropriate places to do so as well as the MS group.

we have a medications forum if that may be what you are looking for
