Substantial healing (was: Re: Re: Stomach Gurgle)

My GI wouldn't prescribe LDN due to not having data on what it might do to the

body years down the line. How long have people been using LDN? Is there a study

out there about long term safety?

I've been thinking about making my own LDN from instructions that were recently

posted. I haven't resumed Humira, although I was supposed to. I don't want my GI

to drop me (I really need her to keep being my GI), so I'm unsure of what to

tell her come my next appt. in Feb.

That sounds like an excuse to me. If she looked at how LDN works, she

wouldn't be concerned. Is she that concerned about what Humira and all the

rest are doing her patients?

ly, if your doctor drops you over you making that kind of decision

for yourself, she doesn't deserve to be your (or anybody's) doctor. Unless

you live in a rural area is it so hard to get another doctor? Objecting to

such a thing would be utterly close-minded on the part of a doctor. Humira

can do a lot of damage, both short- and long-term. Surely she knows that.

I would encourage you to go wit hthe LDN. I also refused to take Humira

and I certianly have not regrets (though I have a much more openminded

doctor, apparently. His approach -- though he hadn't heard about it and

I " m the one that told him about it -- was " well, it certianly can't hurt

you, and it may help, " (which, of course, it has; big time).
