Here are the links to my before LDN and after LDN stories. Scroll down past the

ads on the forum page. Remember, LDN's main purpose is to halt MS progression,

not improve symptoms. If you get symptom improvement on LDN, that's an added

plus for you, you got lucky. LDN works differently in each individual.

Magnesium - Dosage - 800 mg/day

JG "Almost every metabolic system is dependent on magnesium. It helps produce cellular energy, and is needed for nerve impulse transmission. It also helps metabolise the B vitamins and essential fatty acids.

Magnesium and MS

A magnesium deficiency is a common finding in MS. Spasticity can often be traced to low levels of magnesium. This deficiency may be caused by a diet high in refined and processed foods and saturated fat, by bran added to the diet and by diuretics.

In MS, magnesium helps: - relax muscles - reduce tremor, spasticity, fatigue, cramps, numbness, tingling -increase energy levels -improve circulation -to warm up cold extremities.

It can be taken by mouth daily, or can be given in higher doses by intravenous infusion or injection into a muscle. Doctors specialising in nutritional medicine frequently give magnesium by intravenous infusion as part of a cocktail of nutrients, including vitamin B12, It can be taken with Calcium in a supplement called ‘Dolomite’" (see vitamin D research above).

Dear Twinman,

I've been on LDN since the middle of February, and luckily, have had

lots of positive results. But, the reason that I started LDN, like

many, was to stop progression of MS.

I would have been very satisfued, even if, lack of progression was

the only benefit. There are no other drugs out there that " honestly,

halt progression.

But, during the last six months, many of MS symptoms became worse,

before they got better... I found that many times, it was as though I

was repeating past exacerbations (mini ones), while on a larger

scale, I was actually getting better. Sometimes it is difficult to

see the " small " positive changes, until they all multiply, and maybe

then we can see the greater outcome.

Good luck.

Pam

Pam, thank you for the reminder about the small positive changes.

Sometimes it's difficult to see the big picture.
