Guest guest Posted July 1, 2003 Report Share Posted July 1, 2003 Has anyone got any information about LDN and MRI results showing disease progression? Have not started taking LDN but am gathering information. Would appreciate any input. Carolyne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 1, 2003 Report Share Posted July 1, 2003 I for one am not putting much stock in MRI at this point and probably will not have another done. The last neuro that I saw says that he does not even go by them but rather by symptoms because the MRI's seem to vary anyway. He has seen where some spots on one will mysteriously be gone by the next time one is done. Good luck to you Carolyne. This whole thing is such a leap of faith isn't it? Not sure why I just embraced it right from the beginning but I did and am happy that I did. Joyce.

Guest guest Posted July 1, 2003 Report Share Posted July 1, 2003 I will be getting a MRI in November at which time it will have been one year since my last MRI and six months on LDN. Which means if it shows I am better, wonderful but if I it shows progression so what. There was progression in the first six months after my last MRI. Unknown what is going on since LDN but I feel like I am improving. ----- Original Message ----- From: carolyne_reed low dose naltrexone Sent: Tuesday, July 01, 2003 11:18 AM Subject: [low dose naltrexone] MRI Has anyone got any information about LDN and MRI results showing disease progression?

Guest guest Posted July 1, 2003 Report Share Posted July 1, 2003 My daughter, (GA) started LDN in May, 2000. She had an MRI at that time. In August, 2002 she had another MRI that showed all the lesions on her spine (substantial amount)were gone. The lesions on her brain were still there but inactive. She feels that since the spinal lesions healed, it's possible to get the ones on the brain too. Her neuro will do another MRI in 2004 and we'll see how things are going. > Has anyone got any information about LDN and MRI results showing > disease progression?

Guest guest Posted December 11, 2003 Report Share Posted December 11, 2003 Hi Ilene, glad it is working for you. From what Dr. Bihari told me, I would probably regain what I had lost the prior 3 months. It seems he was right, I did regain my bladder and my left hand is much stronger. My walking has improved but I still need my cane.My legs were the first to feel the MS 8 yrs ago, so I guess they may never correct. It was only this past year and a half I need the cane. I am sorry I did not start the LDN before I had reached this point, but who knew? No one can really answer what will happen, but we are all hoping for a miracle. Hold onto that thought, who knows?
