Sally, first, I'm sorry you've had such a bad flare. That's lousy.

Second, as so many here have underlined, people do not necessarily have any

improvement of current symptoms by taking LDN. The main thing is supposed to

be slowing or stopping progression--not fixing what's already gone bad. Some

do have symptom improvement, and some don't. I think that because some

people have had such dramatic changes and, understandably, convey such

excitement, other people make the mistake of expecting that for themselves.

The truth is that some don't even have a slowdown of progression.

The upside is that if you're RRMS, you will likely have most of the flare's

damage fade regardless of what you do. It may take longer. It may leave more

residuals. If you've gone to progressive, it likely won't fade on its own,

but sometimes symptoms do leave . . . even after years . . . with no

apparent reason. MS is a weird, weird disease.
