Numb,
It's unfortunate that you had no success with LDN, but may I ask if you switched compounders before you threw in the towel? I ask, because it is well documented by Dr. Bihari that patients often get no potency, low potency or slow release LDN. This is why he advocated DIY LDN. You cannot fully trust the compounded medications, they are not FDA approved.

Recently one CRPSer wrote on the LDN FB page that she had instant relief.

Others write it took a year. I am now grateful that no doctor would prescribe it for me originally, which forced me into DIY. What if I had gotten no potency LDN I might never have recovered? I am more leery than average, due to a previous compounding failure that cost me half my hearing in one ear.

I also wonder if some think they will lose their business if LDN proves to be too successful, so they purposefully compound less than effective LDN.

I wish all the LDN products that do not work could be checked for potency.
