LDN Video Interviews and Presentations

Celia - Ireland: Parkinson's (LDN, low dose naltrexone) from LDN Research Trust on Vimeo.

Celia from Ireland takes Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) for Parkinson's disease.

Summary

In 2003 I had a bit of a shake in my right arm but the doctor said  it was not enough to worry about. Then two years went by, and it was obviously getting a bit worse and I was diagnosed with Parkinson's.

I started taking Mirapex and later Parkinson's had progressed, and I was beginning to find it very difficult balance-wise and was not confident about walking but I never stopped working.

I actually got an MBA last year for services to build a heritage of Northern Ireland because I'm trying to restore and regenerate our modern village, which I live in and which my family built-in 1835.

I never had a problem with driving so I've always been independent in that way, but sort of getting in and out of the car wasn't the easiest sometimes.

I heard about LDN through my cousin, went to a consultant and he did prescribe it to me.

I didn't notice an immediate relief but then I realized that I wasn't worried about walking anymore

neither shaking. I've straightened up a bit, not completely straight yet. I just feel so much better.

I had put on quite a lot of weight because I wasn't able to walk very much at all and that's all coming off now, so that's good.

I found it extremely difficult trying to write and now I can write perfectly normally again. I do use computers a lot, and I find that was quite an effort, but now it's absolutely fine.

Before LDN I would score my quality of life with a 5 out of 10 and now I would say 9.5.

Dan from the United States shares his Parkinson’s and LDN story on the LDN Radio Show with Linda Elsegod.

Dan from the USA felt he had Parkinson’s for 5 years, but was diagnosed only a year ago. He had a shaking left hand, balance problems, and a weakening voice. His doctor gave him drugs but they only made him drowsy. 

Through a friend he learned about Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) one year ago. He had dreams at first, but no other side effects. His doctors are amazed that his symptoms have not progressed. Dan is happy with the low cost of LDN and marvels at its effectiveness.

Sam - US: Parkinson’s, 31 Jan 2018 (LDN, low dose naltrexone) from LDN Research Trust on Vimeo.

Sam was diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease in 2005 by one doctor, told he didn’t have it by his own primary doctor and then told several months later by a neurologist that he did, in fact, have Parkinson’s Disease. From that emotional roller coaster, he decided to go see his local pharmacist who just happened to be Skip Lenz who specializes in Low Dose Naltrexone. Skip was very honest and told Sam that LDN probably wouldn’t help directly but it would help his immune system which in turn would help him. 

Sam had no side effects at all with Low Dose Naltrexone but says that although LDN didn’t help the stiffness in his arm it did help him overall. Sam has fewer colds now and believes that his Parkinson’s progression has been slowed considerably.
