This can only help and will certainly widen LDN's exposure which is needed. We need this and proper research for it to gain acceptance. I had had MS since 1988 and only first learned about LDN in 2005 and this through the nurse in my neurologists office. She knew I was desperate. LDN was offered by her as as last ditch alternative after I failed and got much worse while using Copaxone, Avonex and Novantrone. The next hope for me was Tysabri, which I was looking forward to using as it was being touted as a wonder drug with a high success rate, but when it started killing people it was pulled from the market and I was told to use Betaseron. I really thought life as I knew it was over for me. I am forever grateful to the nurse who brought me to LDN. I shudder to think we're I'd be now.Art-->> Do you agree with my assessment of the potential impact?> > Am I deluding myself?> > Please.

Guest guest Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 Thanks, Crystal. I sent them the copy from the back of the book: Diagnosed with Progressive Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis, ph Wouk, youngest son of novelist Herman Wouk refuses to accept the doctor's opinion that there is nothing more to be done for his medical condition. He plans to go to the Amazon to try to cure himself with a Shaman's ayahuasca ceremony. The book begins as a journal entitled, PLACEBO – A Rationalist Seeks a Miracle Cure. Wouk, a hardened western rationalist has no patience for spooks or spirits or any other new age wishful thinking. His plan is to try to delude himself with psychedelics into thinking he is cured - Thereby activating the placebo effect to cure himself for real. He covers all the bases: From Buddhism to Judaism. From quantum physics to Gödel's incompleteness theorem. From alternative medicine to the Metaphysics of Quality. Told with humor and honesty, Wouk pulls the reader through his thought processes as he watches his mind dissolve from the subcortical dementia caused by his particular variety of MS. Right before he is scheduled to leave for Peru, all his MS symptoms suddenly disappear. The only drug he was taking was Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN). The second part of the book is entitled: LDN – Miracle Cure Found ! After his symptoms disappear, Wouk finds out that LDN has been stopping the progress of Progressive MS for 20 years. It also has been helping cancer victims, AIDS patients, Parkinson's sufferers, and a host of other immune system related diseases. Naltrexone was FDA approved only to treat recovering addicts. The low dose version works its magic by tripling the body's production of endorphins. This restores the immune system to full operation; hence the drug's ability to help so many diseases. It doesn't fight the diseases; the body fights them once the immune system is restored. Because it is now generic, no one will spend the millions required for FDA approval. Google LDN ! is Wouk's attempt at Dana Paramita, the Buddhist version of Christian " good works " . The book includes a hundred page appendix with the most up to date information about LDN and its effects on immune system related diseases. You'll laugh and cry through the first part of the book and be inspired by the second part. A man who refuses to give up in the face of insurmountable odds ends up completely healed despite the hopelessness that western medicine tells him he faces. > > > > Do you agree with my assessment of the potential impact? > > > > Am I deluding myself? > > > > Please.
