The doctor told me that I might "forget" to eat!! I laughed! He said "no, I'm serious" and he had my undivided attention at that point.

Ever since I have stopped the Neurontin and Baclofen I have noticed that I don't have much of an appetite. I think they were making me hungry. I gained 37 pounds while on those two meds. If the LDN helps me take it off then that's a bonus - it's not my reason for taking it.

Even if I get sleepy this afternoon I won't nap. I'd rather go to bed at 9 PM and see if I can sleep. The doctor said that OTC sleep aids like Tylenol PM can be taken while on LDN. If I need to I'll take it...I'm just trying my best not to take any more than I have to.
