Please take a moment to answer this short survey on Low Dose Naltrexone:

You can also view the ongoing results to help you with your LDN research. This may also help sway medical opinion so that a clinical trial on LDN & MS and other disease gets underway.
I am taking 4.0mg LDN nightly for MS; I started it 2/4/2004. The results were immediate and impressive. But I am frustrated by the lack of studies on LDN.
It's a really bizarre situation, where patients like me are having to hunt down sympathetic docs by referrals from others with MS via chat boards, that will give a script over a phone consult, because our regular docs have never heard of it and won't do it. Because all that's out there is anecdotes, which doctors ignore. So I set up this online survey, to aggregate the anecdotes into a statistical format.
Found an MD on one of the LDN chat boards who is using LDN for his MS, he thinks my survey may help with building a case to convince someone to start trials He is in communication with some researchers in Italy who have already published studies on the low endorphin levels in MS.
