This drug had a low side effect profile. I personally take 2.5 mg each night and have had zero side effects.
I get my LDN compounded at a pharmacy here in the city where I live in. It cost me about a dollar a day and they ship it to my house, Pain doctors are starting to use LDN. Pradeep Chopra is a well known pain doctor who has published a small case study that highlights success with RSD patients on LDN.
There is a good paper out there that explains the 2 mechanisms for this drug. Let me know if you can't find it because I probably have it tucked away somewhere on one of my computers.

Hi Madisongirl, thankyou for the info on LDN. I did acquire some here in the UK but felt unsure about it as I didn't know what side effects I may suffer. I only took it a week and threw it. I have become very skeptical of everything now I have come a bit further down the road of illness and trying to find something to help. I think I will look through some more online info again and really consider giving it a good try. Do you feel it has helped you? Hole it has to some extent
