Jody says:

I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia (FMS) in 1998, M.S. in 2002 and U.C. in 2003.

 

I found LDN after having tried Copaxone, Rebif (could not tolerate even half dose,) and Avonex. I was still having 2 - 3 flares yearly that required I.V. Solumedrol for 3 days each course.

I had progressed to using a cane whenever I left our apartment. I experienced tingling on my left side, (including my face,) with pins and needles from the knees downward daily.

 

This sensation, along with heaviness of my legs, would moved up as far as my waist on "bad" days. I suffered with relentless fatigue and took 1 - 1 1/2 hour naps daily. Evening activities were simply not on my schedule - I knew I would be too tired to enjoy myself.

In the spring before I began LDN I had a flare which left me with permanent double vision. I lost my job as a nanny as I could no longer drive. I fell into despair and could only see an endless wave of increasing disability ahead of me.

I researched online and found LDN. My neurologist wrote the script and in June I began 1.5 mg, increasing to 4.5 by Sept. of '06.

 

I did not experience sleep disturbance or bad dreams. I do dream vividly each night yet, I always have since I was a child.

 

Within 6 months I no longer needed my cane.

 

Unexpectedly, I realized that I no longer needed to nap each day. I now plan activities in the evenings without hesitation.

 

Ulcerative Colitis has also gone into remission.

 

I have not had an MS flare since beginning LDN.

 

By God's grace, it has literally given me my life back. I have no intention of ever going off this medication!

It is my sincere prayer and passion that LDN achieve the recognition and research funding it deserves.
