Guest guest Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 Hi DanNice to read your 'take' on things. I (being a 'newbie' compared to you) feel differently.*shrugs* I don't believe there will ever be a 'cure' because it isn't a 'disease' as far as I'm concerned. lol I'm positive about things and know I can reverse what has happened in me! I believe everyone else can to! :)Having had the CCSVI procedure, and being someone who has been 'fortunate' enough to have experienced solid changes from it, I know that there is a way ot of 'MS'. Changing my detary intake and taking the right supplements for MY body has helped hugely! I hope that you'll stick with us and share your thoughts and experiences with us all as time moves forward.I look forward to your next post. 'What we do in life, echoes through eternity.'

I was also a member of the first online groups to discuss MS and, if it wasn't so sad, it would almost be funny, but for those almost thirty years, the lists haven't really changed.

Guest guest Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 I agree (remembering the " a " ) though I used to not think so because I so desperately wanted there to be a cure. For two reasons this will never happen. MS is autoimmune and once the trigger is tripped the immune system will always be on the lookout for the offender(s). The best solution that I have found is to eliminate known aggitators. The other reason that there won't be a cure in the allopathic realm is that they won't deliberately kill their cash cows! MS has made Big-Pharma rich. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 My husband has MS and a number of years ago we learned about LDN and called Dr. Bihari's office in NY for a phone consultation. When I talked with the doc about the idea of most MS medications suppressing the immune system, he agreed the the goal should be to get the immune system working correctly again. He felt that the LDN was in that category. While I know that a body that has whatever weakness caused the MS in the first place will always be vulnerable, we are trying to work to improve and correct the immune system through supplying it with the nutrients that will help. My husband has secondary progressive and his mobility has deteriorated over the years, but I can see that most of that determination has occurred over summer months when we were traveling and not eating right and we failed to take our supplements consistently. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 Dan, Thanks for a positive post.I have been around MS nearly as long as you (actually diagnosed 1995) and have got used to separating the maybes from the definitely fake " cures " and have learned how to thank people nicely for their concern as they suggest yet another " cure " .The only one I came across in all this time that offered a glimmer was CCSVI treatment which I had partially successfully Oct 2010. All my " MS " symptoms were zapped apart from mobility/balance. I plan on returning in the autumn as they can now look at other veins, specifically the iliacs and renals which " might " do the last bit for me. If not, as you say, MS generally is not terminal. I can still enjoy life for goodness sakes and I have to really think when people say they feel sorry for me. Exactly why is that, I ask? OK I can't walk but really, so what!
