Urge NMSS to Fund LDN Research

[Guest guest]

I may ruffle some feathers here but I

challenge all of you to do something to get funding for LDN research rather

than just Moan and Groan about how no one will fund it because there

isn’t a big buck reward. I

honestly believe that there are enough people in the MS Society who believe in

what they’re doing that if they are given enough pressure to fund LDN research,

they’ll have to take notice.

But this will take some effort on our

part. We all have to write to the

NMSS and just say something like “please fund research into the efficacy of Low

Dose Naltrexone as a treatment for MS.

I realize that your official stance is that anything that ‘boosts’ the

immune system is bad for MS but the doctors involved with LDN believe that by

improving the function of the immune system it better differentiates ‘self’

from ‘non-self’. I urge you to

fund a study of Low Dose Naltrexone rather than rejecting it out of hand.”

I think this is super

important. Sure anyone who has MS

and knows about LDN and has a doctor who is willing to prescribe it and/or is

brave enough to try it on their own can get it, but that’s a pretty weak excuse

not to write a letter to the NMSS.

You bet if they get 100s or even 1000s of letters they will take

notice. That will help many more

people than the current situation does.
