Guest guest Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 Hi Carolyn, It is certainly worth trying LDN for tremors, especially with MS, as most people with MS have good success rates for many of their symptoms. But my experience so far with just tremors alone is not very encouraging. My mom has Parkinson's and has received help with energy/fatigue and a better sense of balance, but her tremors did not seem to be changed. She took Miraplex and that seems to help. We also had a someone on this site named who simply has tremors (no MS or Parkinson's). She gave LDN about 4 to 5 months, but she did not notice a difference. Her mother also has tremors, so it might be a genetic thing. It does not hurt to try LDN and certainly all of our bodies are different, and it is possible that the underlining cause is something that LDN can help with. So because you have MS, I really do think it is worth trying. All my best, Aletha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 i have rrms and have had tremorson my left side and right hand. to the point where i couldnt type even with one finger. my hand just shook too badly. i started LDN back on sept 9th and at this point the tremors are all but gone. there is some remnant tremors to my left hand but moreso when its cold. other than that its almost un noticablefrom a distance (unless you know what your looking at and what to look for) and i dont even notice it myself unless im trying to do some extra fine detaily kinda work. > > Hi Carolyn, > > It is certainly worth trying LDN for tremors, especially with MS, as most people with MS have good success rates for many of their symptoms.

Guest guest Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 I have had CFS(chronic fatigue syndrome) for ten years----taken LDN for three. I feel it gives me strength and energy. What I would like to know from you who on the list have MS----is what were the key symptoms, that finalized your diagnosis?? I've had slight tremors for five years---which I noticed starting when doing chelation for metals. I've been able to remain functional, with careful pacing and diet. Two months ago, I developed an involuntary twitching/flinching of the eyes-------it is very draining. I had an MRI, which was compared to MRI of a few years back and told "everything normal". I'm NOT looking to have MS, but would the neurologist miss the early signs?? My neurologist wants me to take a medication for Parkinson's to stop the eye twitching---------------I am not happy with the suggestion and am searching for other answers------just started some neurotransmitter work, in hopes it will stop or slow down the motion. If any of you have had this symptom or have any insight, would deeply appreciate your feed back. God Bless, Sara Mom/Grammie to eight "Trying to live by my priorities rather then my pressures".
