      From judyz July 16

      Would love to know about the IgG and if and when it works. Also, the LDN. What are your symptoms. Wow 27 years you are an inspiration to me. I have been diagnosed for 7 and have been on Copaxone as long. Getting OLD. Can't stand the constipation and lack of endurance. Any suggestions?

    • Close Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
      Type: Seconday Progressive MS

      Diagnosed in 1981 while pregnant with my 2nd child. Did well till 1994 & had to go on SSDI. Always in search of something that can make a difference, usually alternative in nature, as not finding much help from Allopathic Medicine.

      Treatments

      Baclofen Somewhat Helpful
      Only take 5 - 10 mgs. nightly, as I'm not too spastic.
      Beta Interferon Not Working
      Took 1995 - 2000. Only made matters worse! Glad I stopped & began treatment with LDN, which has been beneficial.
      LDN - Low Dose Naltrexone Working / Worked
      Been taking for last 8 years.
      Physical Therapy Working / Worked
      Off & on through the years. Probably would work better if I could keep up with it.
      Provigil Not Working
      Took for a short time. Only kept me awake, but gave me headaches, so I stopped.
      Solumedrol Not Working
      Had my very first infusion (500 mg for 3 days) & didn't experience any benefit whatsoever!
      Symmetrel Not Working
      Tried it several times, but nothing really to say of any benefit.
