Re: LDN - SirR

[Guest guest]

In the end, we all have to paint our own pictures.

Good reports of LDN performance are everywhere on the web. Rather dislike

sharing stories on how some people feel that LDN might not be a effective

treatment for them.

Will share a coupe stories I had found on the Yahoo LDN database;

You say to post off topic info on the " LDN support group " I'm confused....I

thought this *was* the LDN support group? Where can we talk about other

therapies? I know this group is for LDN only, but it would be nice if it was LDN

*mostly.* Because when LDN doens't work, then it's nice to hear about other

therapies so you are not totally hopeless. And I dont know of another board to

get this ifno from. Because here we are all in the same boat and if this doenst

work, it is good to have an alternative. If people use the subject line to

indicate it is another therapy then people who dont care to read it can skip

over it right? It's just an idea. Obviously i am not the owner(s). I am just

stating my opinion now that LDN has failed me miserably.

LDN was no use to my partner.

My partner Margot has advanced secondary progressive MS.

She has taken 4.5mg LDN for six months and she has had NO benefit at

all from it.

I wish all MS sufferers well and hope that they have a better

experience than we did.

When we read of people who have been in a wheelchair for years taking

LDN and walking.... Well I hope it is true and wish them well.

I want people to realise that others like us for whom it didn't work

at all are in fact unlikely to do what i am doing now and saying so!

Thus anecdotes abound of 'success' (maybe)and our disappointments are

unspoken.

There is only one thing worse than the handwringing 'no hope' from

our neurologist and that is the pedlars of false hopes.

Hi Pete,

I resent your allegation that I am a peddler of false hope. LDN is NOT a false

hope. It is among the most promising alternative MS treatments currently

available and has helped countless MS sufferers, some more so than others.

Of course, LDN, like every other approach to treating MS, does not work in every

case, and no one is denying or pretending that is not so. But LDN works often

enough that it should at least be tried in every case.

You can take your negativity and false allegations some place else.
