LDN, a reminder.

LDN, a reminder


Please sign the http://ldnnow.com EU Parliament Petition - http://bit.ly/LDNNowEU

If you are in the UK, write to your MP and encourage others to do the same - http://writetothem.com

Ask your MP to attend the All Party Parliamentary Group starting in the House of Commons, Thursday September 13th at 10.30am in Room O, Portcullis House.

LDN Now are sending UK LDN experts and their celebrity supporter, Dr Chris Steele MBE from This Morning to advocate LDN to these MPs. http://ldnnow.com are a pressure group I am a member of, I even went to the Scottish Parliament and petitoned them on this issue - http://bit.ly/SPLDNm1v1 I take Low Dose Naltrexone as I have Crohn's Disease (I was given mesalazine at first, but it damaged my kidneys, they work about 20% of normal now). LDN is cheap and out of patent, so the pharma companies understandbly aren't interested in researching it - mesalazine costs the NHS about £12K a year, LDN costs about £120 a year. LDN has been trialed (Both Phase 1 and Phase 2) in the US on a small scale but doctors usually don't know about it and won't prescribe it as they say they need more research, but the research isn't profitable - Catch 22.

I realise this is a lot of work and info but LDN Now need all the support they can get as this drug can help lots of people with all sorts of auto-immune conditions, just like steroids can - Crohn's Disease, Ulcerative Colitis, Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS)/ME, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis and others - it's not homeopathy, it's science and it's being criminally ignored for the sake of greed and profit.
