Basic LDN Question

Post by DenverCO »

Does LDN work against the CRAB drugs? Do many of you use both simultaneously?

I know the answers to my questions have already been posted here, but I'm taking a shortcut here.

Hi Denver

According to Dr. Bihari, who has been pioneering this treatment for over 15years, one should not take both therapies together. He states that Copaxone can be taken concurrently. I've never taken any of the crabs and have been on the LDN for just about 3years now successfully. Hope this helps you some. I look forward to the LDN conference that is being held in NY this June too. Dr. Bihari will be the keynote speaker and Dr. Lawrence should be there as well as some of the compounders.

Dear Joyce,

Please to pardon the weak quality of my english. I'm french. Nobody's perfect !

I have just posted a new topic
http://www.thisisms.com/modules.php?nam ... pic&t=1078
about what you answered on
http://www.thisisms.com/modules.php?nam ... pic&t=1061

This gives me hope finding testimonies of people having had LDN for very first drug. But even though you would'nt be the only case of it, the problem would remain the same, i.e. that the doctors wont believe me. Could you post me a scan of any medical old piece and of a recent one that could confirm the diagnosis and your today's state of health ?

Thanks by advance

Porte-toi bien

Jean-Baptiste

Hi Jean..

I am pretty sure that you are asking me for some sort of proof of perhaps my condition before and after LDN? So sorry to tell you that I would have no physical proof such as an MRI or something. I am doing so well that I no longer see any neuros. I did an MRI before the LDN but they are too costly for me to even consider at this point. I see no reason to spend the money for it. $1,000.00 is what I would have to spend for it. All I have to offer you is my own story and testimonial which I have e-mailed to you.
I am 3 years on the LDN and will never give it up as I don't have any MS problems (other then the pre-LDN permanent damage) anymore. Hope the e-mail helps you. Please do give that www.lef.org a try as you may have some luck finding a more forward thinking doctor there.
Oh and your English is fine..*S*.

I have been taking Avonex and LDN for 10 months now. I took Avonex alone for 1.5 years before that. My latest MRI (Feb 05) showed 2 inactive lesions. That was down from 3 active lesions when I was in my sixth month on Avonex (Aug 03) and 5 active lesions before any medicine (Jan 03). This doesn't necessarily prove anything about the use of LDN and Avonex since the lesion load was decreasing prior to taking LDN and I was only on Avonex. Nevertheless, my symptoms have improved noticeably since starting LDN and nothing leads me to believe that interferon and LDN counteract each other.
