Weakened immunity
But they also found both drugs significantly lowered immune defenses that allowed latent herpes viruses to rage in some patients in one study, two people died of unchecked herpes infections.

The side effects detailed in the new studies are giving some physicians pause.

well, that saved on it's own!

anyway... apparently some people have herpes, or had outbreaks periodically and not in a long time, but taking the med brought them out and worse than ever before.


I'll keep my LDN, no colds, no allergies, no progression, no attacks, going on 7 years now. The Pink Elephant

Thanks Larry, I was a little confused. LOL Apreciate the response.

seems most people with MS also have Some form of EBV... epstein barr virus, but then again, I guess lots more have it as well since chicken pox is a form of EBV, all the strains of herpes, MONO, and on. But apparently not all of Them will show signs of MS.

Yeah... that is scary! Side effects are pretty significant.

I wonder if that includes cold sores? I would never take anything that messed with my looks! lol

Thanks for posting the article, I hadn't heard an update on the oral med in a while. I see my neuro next week, so it'll give me something to ask about. But, my shot of Rebif isn't too bad, so I'll probably stick with that for now rather than take the risk of a weakened immune system.

LDN doesn't weaken the immune system, it stops progression in most cases, Causes Stability and long term remission, it's available by prescription now and usually costs less than $32/month for 4.5 MG and less than $22 for 3.0; you can put 'low dose naltrexone' into youtube and watch videos from the previous conferences.
