Guest guest Posted March 24, 2004 Report Share Posted March 24, 2004 Hi everyone, This may be off topic but I do use LDN and don;t feel any different. I have recently been seeing a neurology /opthamologist and she seems to think since I have uveitis that I don't really have MS. She claims that white matter on the brain and the other symptoms mimic MS but aren't always MS. Has anyone else had a dr. tell them this? Could it be possible we are being diagnosed by a test alone and maybe it isn't what we are being treated for? I am ready to just say no more spinal taps and I will keep on doing what I am doing, but I would like my vision back. She mentioned lupus and Chron's and I'm not sure if I would just be better off with the mild case of MS. I won't even go thru the hassle I had with referrals and the barage of tests to come.

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2004 Report Share Posted March 26, 2004 Roy Swank wrote a diet book on ms and says there is a flicker fusion test and a red blood cell mobility test that are accurate in obtaining a diagnosis. These tests are not well known but I am sure you could find someone to do them for you. Also. make sure you are tested for lyme and hughes syndrome. Also someone asked about the use of alpha lipoic acid. It is 50 time more potent when taken with vitamin E. Carlton Fredericks was a world renown nutritionist who prescribed it for neuropathy. The protocal is as follows: 300mg with vitamin E four times daily for two weeks. Then 300mgxday thereafter.Kathy ----- Original Message ----- From: " Long " <Clong38@...> <low dose naltrexone > Sent: Wednesday, March 24, 2004 2:45 AM Subject: [low dose naltrexone] more tests to come > Hi everyone, > > This may be off topic but I do use LDN and don;t feel any different.
