Re: ldn results and information question

[Guest guest]

Hi ,

Great news. The sheet you are talking about is most likely in your welcome

e-mail.

Check here first:

Articles about LDN

http://www.mwt.net/~drbrewer/lownaltrex.htm

http://www.gazorpa.com/

If you can't find what you are looking for there, then try:

*Maureen has put together 2 documents that help to explain LDN and how to

talk to your doctor about LDN.

The Doctor's Folder, the folder of information to show your doctor:

http://www.larrygc.com/ldn/ldndoctorsfolder.doc

The other is a Patient's Guide to Explaining LDN to your Doctor, which will

help you present the Folder to your doctor without your doctor's head

Hi , attached are two research papers you can give to your

have, Parkinson's, a slow mover. I have been taking 4.5mg LDN for 19

months and because my PD meds are so effective for now, I can't tell

if LDN helps or has stoped progression. If someone with ALS can show

that there disease progression has been halted while on LDN, I think

it makes a very good case for LDN. You might want to bump up to 4.5mg.

I hope you stay with LDN and it works for you. Good luck and please

keep in touch.

Have you thought of doing a simple hair test to discover toxicities?

My Aunt had this same label, ALS. She finally agreed to a hair test

a few weeks before her passing. Her results showed a 99%+ for

probability of mercury toxicity. She had a mouthful of amalgams with

metals crowns etc. She was also a 'farm kid' raised in the early

days of pesticides, fertilizers etc and probably was impacted by

that also. It's good to hear that the ldn is helping.

Thank you locating that information and posting it! I'll print them

out and give it to both my neurologist and my internist. I know

they will both be appreciative.

We are going to increase my dose to 4.5, but my neurologist wanted

to keep me at 3.0 for two months.

Best wishes!

In the process of diagnosing me, I was checked for heavy metals, and

none were found. But that's for the suggestion!

I'm sorry to hear about your Aunt. There are theories that suggest

that exposure to farm chemicals can cause ALS, but none of been

conclusive. I wouldn't be surprised to find a correlation in some

cases however.

While you are checking things, if you haven't already do the home test

to check for candida. All this test will cost you is your spit in a

glass of water.

Thanks for the advice, ! I actually did it when you mentioned

it not long after I joined. I'm thrilled to say that there was no

cloudiness! But again, thanks for reminding me in case I hadn't

done it already!
