I think 1.5 mg is a good starting dosage, especially if you have contributing medical concerns which might conflict. 1.5 mg is not likely to get you much symptom improvement (if you get this "bonus"), and according to Dr B, is not going to protect you from having relapses or progression either. The minimum is 3.0mg in order to realize these benefits from LDN.
If it takes 3 or 6 months to get up to 3.0mg, and you need tests to ensure that this isn't affecting your other condition . . . so be it. You will need to move up at some point though.

Thanks for the heads-up. I was wondering about that earlier.
If I end up calling in another prescription, I'll see if I can get that changed. What pharmacy do you use? I think I will find another one if they have lost my info for good.
