might be able to find a dr. in your area. I know changing docs. isn't always easy, and I was very fortunate, he didn't hesitate, just ask that I keep him posted. I've been on antibiotic protocol 10 years and LDN 11 months which have had no major flares. I crush and mix myself, $8 script(partD) still have 2 left which will make a full year's worth.

She'll try to help find a doctor ... http://crystalangel6267.webs.com/lookingforanldndr.htm
and has an informative MS blog.

Good vibes and prayers being sent your way.
