Maria from Canada was diagnosed with idiopathic uveitis in 2006, and the following year suffered a vertigo attack. She had many falls due to dizziness, sometimes hitting her head and also experienced extreme fatigue, headaches, piercing ear ache, hand numbness and insomnia.
In 2008, Marias GP told her she had multiple sclerosis (MS). The following year she was prescribed Copaxone as a daily injection, however after two and a half years of using the injections, she ran out of places to inject due to hard lumps all over. After returning back to the GP, she was given Avonex, which resulted in flu-like symptoms for six months.
After asking about low dose naltrexone (LDN), she was told there was not enough research behind it so she was not given a prescription.
Maria sourced a GP in Canada who was open to LDN, and has been taking it for almost a year. She started to feel a new burning sensation down the middle of her left leg, however this went away after a few months. Maria was able to sleep without pills, and cut out all other medication besides LDN and one other. She is able to walk straight without the use of her cane and experiences fewer leg spasms. Her quality of life has drastically improved and she “would like a lot of people to know about Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN)”
