Re: MS FUTURE MEDICATIONS POSSIBLE CURE?

October 21, 2003

Yeah, you're right and it's kind of disturbing. The free market is

supposed to work in every situation right? It would be interesting

to find out if there is some collusion among drug companies and

avoidance of cures for the sake of keeping the ms drug market

profitable.

Hard to say. Who's to say it wouldn't make sense for a company

to " cheat " and come out with the cure and " steal " all potential

profits away from the other drug companies that are just stringing us

along?

What about the countries in this world that are not so motivated by

profit? If they come out with a cure before the big, bad, drug

companies, wouldn't that be embarassing?

Truth of the matter is, I have mixed feelings about drug companies

purposely keeping the cure out of ms'ers hands. It makes sense, but

on the other hand it doesn't make sense. It's not a simple matter.

Money does make the world go around, but that doesn't stop rogue drug

companies from finding much better medicine than interferon and

capturing the ms drug market.

I take LDN because I haven't heard one legitimate argument that it

wouldn't work. Turmeric, acetyl-l-carnitine, R-Alpha Lipoic Acid,

multivitamin, and extra B vitamins for now. I stay away from stress

and try to stay aloof. Maybe one day soon we'll all get something

that can really help us.

Until then I could care less about anything. I just try to enjoy my

life.
