BTW, I never had issues until about a month after beginning the LDN. The pharmacist swears there is no connection. *shrug

I had some medication "shuffling" going on when this sx hit. I was going off of my AD, Neurontin and Baclofen. I don't know if this triggered this sx or the sinus infection I also had.

I've had this sx before....it was one of the first I had but I have noticed that my sight is a little whacky and I'm wondering if I'm fixing to have double vision again. This is exactly how it started when I had it three years ago. And it was right about this time, too. It's always in October that sx flare up for me.

If I look straight ahead I'm fine. If I cut my eyes to the right my vision is doubled. It's not so bad to the left. But....it's always been this way ever since I've had sx. If I call my Neuro he'll just say "take steroids" and I'm not going to do that again. I'll just wait it out. Hopefully it won't get any worse.

But I don't think that the LDN has anything to do with the dizziness/vertigo that we have. I have to "right" myself too if I bend down or move in any direction quickly.

Oh, the joys of MS...............
