Jennifer from Canada shares her Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) Story on the LDN Radio Show with Linda Elsegood

Jennifer was officially diagnosed in 2000 with Multiple Sclerosis (MS), but had suffered from a  litany of symptoms prior to her diagnosis. These included blurred vision, which she noticed when mowing the lawn one day and she couldn't see the bottom of the garden and bladder problems. Jennifer had also been suffering from fatigue since she was a child.

Jennifer had also tried multiple other medications that had little to no benefit on improving her health before she found Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN). 

“I noticed improvements in my health almost immediately. The muscle spasms in my legs stopped allowing me to walk again properly, and also the spasms in my bladder which were causing me to use the bathroom so frequently and have restless nights.

I would like to say that if you’re thinking about trying LDN, then give it a shot. It’s really not that expensive. Just start low and go slow, work your way into it.”

Jennie from England shares their Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) Story on the LDN Radio Show with Linda Elsegood.

Jennie was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) at the age of twenty. She began with simple flu-like symptoms at first, but then began to notice that her balance was off; she couldn’t walk far without stumbling. 

Within five months of discovering and starting on Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN), Jennie noticed considerable improvements in her health almost instantly: she could stand up properly, she could walk further distances and her bladder was under greater control.

“I also no longer need my afternoon naps, which was another bonus. Overall, my quality of life has just increased tenfold.

I understand that LDN can affect everyone differently but, certainly from my experience, it can dramatically improve your health and enjoyment of life.”

Jeni - England: Psoriasis (LDN, low dose naltrexone) from LDN Research Trust on Vimeo.

Jeni:  Im here to talk about psoriasis and, um, my experience of using LDN with psoriasis and, and hopefully it'll help other people with psoriasis just to give them another option of treatment. Since I was, I had quite good success with it. Say, Just bit about the psoriasis. It affects approximately 2% of the UK population in varying degrees.

And it's a chronic skin condition, which causes basically red scaly practice to appear. And it's quite uncomfortable. It can be if it's all over, which is what I had, um, it's related to the immune system, but I think it's not knowing exactly, um, how. How it's related, or any say current treatments involve steroid creams and versed alignments moisturize.

Um, there are some immune system drugs out there at the moment. I think they just, they were long term. So, and they have quite a lot of side effects. So I've never been keen to try layers, or any of the confess, the physical effects that easy to see. But if it's. Quite, um, considerable coverage of psoriasis, then it can have other emotional and personal effects to you.

So let's start skiing is Rossi's when I was about 21, 22, funnily enough, when I was at Penn state university studying over there. So it wasn't a where they're doing the research at the time, unfortunately. Um, Um, stopped is just a small patch, my neck, and then gradually over the next couple of months, spread everywhere, basically arms, legs, body, face, scalp, every way you can think of really so pretty much covered, um, not very comfortable condition to have really, but I tried to not let it face anything all day, really day today, but for some people, it can affect the DC living.

Is that you tried various creams or ointments steroid creams? UVB light which is, which was quite successful, but don't want to repeat it too many times anything and different diets, gluten-free diets. Um, do you sing herbal remedies, acupuncture? Pretty much everything you could think of, but nothing really.

Whereas degree affects, obviously you didn't do some treatments were better than others, and everything varies for different people. Some things were better. Okay. So I was looking for something else to try basically. So after doing a lot of trailing around and the internet, I discovered LDN about a year ago and decided to give it a try. So I've seen his name. Mmm. The side effects as far as I can see. And you may say I visited the essential health clinic in Glasgow and started off taking malaria steaks. Congratulated next few months increase the dosage, um, by about, after about three months.

And I was kind of thinking, Oh, was not really working, couldn't see any effect really, and they're a great improvement, but if it was continued taking it off, six has no side effects I can see.

 so I've spent after about five, six months, my skin was clearing and all the red patches getting less red, basically less itchy and uncomfortable.

And it was very beneficial saying some. Pictures the evidence and all the leftovers, the exam on her face had it all in my face and both sides, forehead, um, psoriasis can vary. So in the song, they would get better sometimes because with the sunlight we can improve. But on the right-hand side, it's been a bit of better, better foods.

Actually, that was probably my camera phone, and neither was decent: because he wants to see. Completely clear to my face. Anyway, that's just the more back before on the left-hand side. It was pretty much covered. Um, and on the right-hand side, a few months later,

it's not great for our team, but I can kind of see Jose on the left-hand side is covered in red patches and, um, is actually, I think that was bout after two or three months taking it. So that's not the worst it's been. But I'm like no legs now. Completely clear. Same. So luxury to have skin pain, to be honest, search thing in conclusion, LDN definitely works for me.

I've actually, um, being offered every few months now. Cause I'm expecting a baby in February and it didn't kind of mix with morning sickness at the time, but it seems to have prolonged effects. And then my skin hasn't come back very, very much over the last four or five months stayed pretty constant,  which is good.

it hasn't. Suddenly the whole come back, which is great. And hopefully, it can help a lot of people with psoriasis and has actually talked to my GP yesterday for something else. And she mentioned she'd be prescribing LDN more, but didn't realize it more for psoriasis. So hopefully. I can educate her, get her to try on some other people.

Jeanette from England shares their Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) story on the LDN Radio Show with Linda Elsegood.

After the initial relief of recognising the issue, Jeanette’s problems grew as fatigue began to settle in. She had a large relapse following the death of her mother, leading to great stress. However, finding Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) helped her to recover and boost her health.

Jean heard about Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) after being in an exercise group; Jean loved the LDN medication, finding it “extraordinary!” He recommends Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) to everyone, and encourages people to try it.  At this time however, Doctors would not prescribe it to Jean, but fortunately his Neurologist agreed to prescribe LDN to him.

During the time Jean was taking his LDN medication, he started having problems with fatigue. But he does feel more logical and focused! 

Before the LDN medication, Jean rated his quality of life between a 1-2 and now a strong 7!

Jean - US: Multiple Sclerosis (MS) (LDN, low dose naltrexone) from LDN Research Trust on Vimeo.

Jean from the United States was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 2000. She experienced dizziness, numbness and vertigo prior to the diagnosis; all of which would come and go after a period of days. Three years before the diagnoses, Jean lost the majority of hearing in her right ear, and almost half in her left.

Jean first came across LDN after searching the web and reading about someone taking it in Florida, and it just so happened that her mother had a place there. So, in 2001 she flew down and saw a GP that prescribed her LDN. Jean felt no initial side effects at all and not long after starting the medication, her vertigo had gone and is now in remission. MRI and other various tests have shown that the majority of Jean’s lesions have also either shrunk or disappeared entirely

Jazzy - Canada: Multiple Sclerosis (MS) (LDN, low dose naltrexone) from LDN Research Trust on Vimeo.

Jazzy from the United States  takes LDN for multiple sclerosis. She first started to notice MS symptoms when she was twelve. She had paralysis on the left side of her face which went away after about a month and it wasn't until she turned 31 that she noticed the left side of her face was numb and didn't know what it was.

She saw a neurologist and he sent her for an MRI and there was plaque build up on the left side of the brain causing  numbness to the right side of the face. And that's when she was diagnosed with MS. 

The bottom of her feet would also sometimes be numb.

She was offered steroids right away but she didn't want to take them.

She began researching healing from MS rather than looking at the negatives. The only thing that really came up in a positive light online was LDN.  Before  starting  Low Dose Naltrexone she had numbness, tingling and was given steroids to alleviate the pain. The numbness and tingling later spread to her spine which scared her so she wanted treatment.  Her quality of life scoring was 4. She was depressed at the prospect of disease progression.

When she began taking LDN she didn't notice any introductory side effects other than finding it hard to sleep on the first night but felt instantly better in the morning; even better than before the MS began and she has taken it since October 2013

She would recommend it to anyone as there are no side effects.
