It has been a while since I checked in with an update, so here goes:

I have now been on LDN for a couple of months, give or take. I am on a 3.5mg dosage. I remember when I first started LDN, I felt an amazing ease of physical movement, and an almost complete lack of the tremors that I had been having non-stop for years. I still have very little to no tremors. The ease of movement is still there, but along with this has come the realization that I now have a 61-year-old body that hasn’t been at all active in quite a few years. I guess that I have years of muscle wasting to undo. I often have the sort of body stiffness/pain that is understandable under the circumstances. It isn’t the same as MS stiffness and pain, though. It feels like I am an athlete who is training hard, and I guess that’s exactly what I am. I am building muscle mass that has been gone for years. To be honest, it feels wonderful – in a sort of awful way if you know what I mean.

On the practical side, before LDN I was a rollator/powerchair person when away from home, and a wall walker around the house. I have not used my power chair since I started LDN, and I have only used my rollator a few times; when I knew I’d probably want a place to sit down. I attribute my newly found mobility to an improvement in my balance, as well as a reduction in clumsiness.

In summation, I am still amazed at the improvement. I have had a few days where I haven’t felt all that much better, but those days are outnumbered by the days that I thank my lucky stars that I am one of the people with MS that is helped quite a bit by LDN.
