So, some people on some of these boards and sites and in some of the actual medical literature recommend caution about treating PMLD. It just seems that not a lot is known about this disorder. Thanks again for replying. I do appreciate it.
Yes it has helped me....

your finding conflicting info and personal experiences when asking this is normal. medications are not one thing fits all. its where the same med can affect many in different ways. for some the same meds will help for others they may need the dosage changed or have it coupled with another med too, or even different diet, exercise... so many elements go into whether a medication will work for one and not another.

my suggestion is just contact your treatment providers and work with them, it may take time but sooner or later you and your treatment providers will find the right one for you.
