I'm 57 yrs. old was dx April 2003, traced back to when I was in my twenties. Had problems off and on and then they really got bad around 1999. I've had double vision when looking to the left for 2 yrs now, vertigo, balance problems, spasticity, cognative problems. fatigue, etc,etc...

Stopped working in 2000, took me 3 years to get diagnosed. Got disability last Aug. Started Copaxone April 2003, but as of last Tuesday my neuro took me off of it.. Waiting to have a long conversation with him about this.

My last MRI was better, but still have on going symptoms, he doesn't think the drug is helping.. wants to wait for Antegren..

May also have Myasthenia Gravis.. that's not dx at this time.

Glad I found this board ,want to read more about Antegren and LDN.

Looking forward to visiting with all of you.

Lynn

Hi Lynn, Very Happy

Welcome to the board. There's plenty of information available here, as you've already found, and plenty of answers to any questions you might have.

The only treatment I have any experience of is LDN, and unfortunately that didn't work for me, but it seems to be good for many.

All the best,
Chris P
