Linda Elsegood, Founder of the LDN Research Trust, lives with relapsing/remitting MS. She was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS) in August 2000 at the age of 44, and was having attacks every 6 months; it took months for a relapse to recede, only to have another one start. In October 2003 she was told she had secondary progressive MS and there was nothing anyone could do to help her. She decided to take matters into her own hands, and started Low Dose Naltrexone in December 2003. Hear Linda tell her Multiple Sclerosis story and discover what is LDN and how can it sometimes help people with MS. This alternative treatment has eased Linda's MS Symptoms, removed her pain and enabled her to regain her life. https://ldnresearchtrust.org/about-the-ldn-research-trust and the link to the forthcoming LDN Book 2 launch tour is: https://ldnresearchtrust.org/ldn-book2 Link to sign up as a MS Action Taker is: https://multiplesuccess.activehosted.com/app/forms/25 Copyright: Bron Webster 2020 www.multiplesuccess.co.uk
Today, Linda Elsegood from The LDN Research Trust joins me to talk about her incredible story from literally someone who could not walk or talk from MS, to the highly productive woman she is today who runs the LDN Research Trust, reaching hundreds of thousands of people world-wide. Linda's disease started early in life forcing her to have a year off of school at the age of 13 to the point where the Dr's said there was nothing more they could do for her at the age of 44. Left with no medical help, practically lifeless and unable to focus for more than 10 minutes at a time, we hear how she found people suffering from the same illness and why LDN was a last ditch attempt to get her life back. Fast forward 16 years to today and we now know that LDN can help over 440 different health issues, is cheap to use and has an impeccable safety record. This, often emotional story, takes us through a roller coaster of emotions that ends up providing hope for millions who may be suffering and are at the end of their tether. https://ldnresearchtrust.org linda@ldntr.org www.paulburgess.uk

Today’s guest on the FUMS Podcast Show is Linda Elsegood, founder of the LDN Research Trust. After her diagnosis and rapid decline pushed her to the very edge, she began hearing about Naltrexone (Nalorex), a drug used to treat addiction to opiate drugs such as heroin or morphine as well as alcoholism. Linda found that low doses of this inexpensive drug might help the symptoms of people with a wide range of autoimmune conditions, including MS. She started taking the drug and found that it made a huge difference to her MS. She also learned that it was very difficult to get a prescription for LDN. Since then she has dedicated herself to spreading the word about LDN, setting up the LDN Research Trust in 2004, and helping people around the world find an LDN prescribing doctor. Topics covered include: Linda's diagnosis and her struggle to get a prescription for LDN The amazing results she got after a short time taking the drug Her campaign to increase access to LDN and the formation of the LDN Research Trust The positive results which can be achieved by combining LDN with CBD [Cannabidiol, a cannabis compound that can have significant medical benefits] The continuing work of the LDN ResearchTrust including a worldwide register of prescribing doctors … and so much more!
