all about D

[Guest guest]

I just got my domestic partner on LDN after serious discussions with doctors, both her primary doc and her neurologist. I tell you all this because I have heard of so many people struggling to find a doc who will prescribe... Our particular problems where compounded (no pun intended) because she has psychological issues as well. She is Bipolar and Borderline... No doctor would touch it because of the meds she was on already... I finally found a web site remidyinfo.com that had some research info on LDN and Bipolar / Borderline... its minimal info, but after heated discussion with her Psychiatrist he agreed to prescribe it... tonight is only her second night on the LDN, she had a very emotional day, both manic and sad... All I can say is that I will keep everyone posted as to the progress... She is taking it because she has M.S. but hoping along with the freedom from M.S. also comes freedom for her whole life... I have read so many things about LDN, I have so much faith in it... she is still afraid to trust in it... I'm hoping my faith and the truth behind the medicine are enough to convince her to continue the LDN... I just want to thank the source of the information that dropped into my lap... Her cousin Missy who send us her signed copy of "Up the creek with a paddle" (sorry Missy I went highlighter crazy before I realized it was signed)... anyway, I guess I am being a little long winded... I basically started this email to let people know about the possibility of LDN helping with Psychiatric issues... The best of luck to all...

Re: [low dose naltrexone] been gone for a while but advice

Kim,

I forgot to mention another possibility to you, strictly for what it's worth, take it with a grain of salt, your mileage may vary. I started LDN by way of http://medsmex.com, recommended by several on this group in early October. I take it because Dr. Bihari thinks everyone should and I have thyroid issues. I haven't seen my new doctor in my new location yet, though has and likes him and we had my records transferred to him. I'm not going to tell him about the LDN at least until I get a read on him in person. Then I may or may not. Of course, my health situation isn't as acute as yours and I can't say how I would approach not telling a neurologist about taking LDN behind his or her back if I had MS. 's new neuro does prescribe LDN, though it's only because the other docs. in her group believe in it. She says she isn't aware of it working but isn't opposed to it. takes the liquid form, now 4.0 mg because reducing from 4.5 mg reduced her stiffness and fatigue. 's last neuro. advocated novantrone (sp?). After I did some research, she refused. Dr. Batchu was an excellent doctor who I respected very much, but he had a tendency to treat 's symptoms more so than her person. There's much to be said for quality of life. There have been recent posts by some here about their experiences with chemo. that sounded awful. What about a different doctor? What about getting naltrexone mail order, no prescription, despite the docs. protests? Have not been here while die to the fact I didn't have a computer
