I'm not using it ,but wanted to try it. I do know someone with MS that is taking it. What dosage are you on now? Are you doing okay

My actually dx is Parkinson's, not MS. It doesn't work as good as it does with MS but in some cases it helps with some of the symptoms of PD and meds are sometimes reduced by half or more. Iwill try almost anything so that is my delima.

You sound like me. I'd rather use some of the alternative therapies. I've tried acupuncture, glutathione treatments, some kind of tenns machine, and now I'm taking John Coleman's e-class. I don't like the idea of surgery and someone drilling a hole in my head. I also don't like the long term side effects of ldopa therapies. Have you noticed any improvement using the LDN? There are some good programs on Parkinson Recovery Radio. There is one from Dr. Terry Wahls about nutrition and how she recovered, and one about a weighted vest by a physical therapist that looked interesting. There was also a post a couple days ago with a link to youtube about an orthopedic dentist who helped people with Parkinson's. Just google TMJ Parkinson's if you want to see the video.

How long have you had PD? I had it for almost 15 years, but I'm not giving up.
