Had my phone appointment with LDN doc today. Told him about the two episodes of ON I had over the past two months. He suggested that I add a 1.5 mg. dose of LDN at noon in addition to my regular 4.5 dose (making a total of 6 mg daily). He said if I noticed increased spasticity to go off and try again in a week.....sort of like I did when I was increasing my 3.0 mg dosage to 4.5 mg. I asked if I should still try this since my ON had completely cleared up and he said I should. He said there was obviously some inflammation somewhere to cause the ON and, if it were him, he'd start the additional dosage now and as long as it didn't present any problems, to keep taking it. We'll see how it goes! Has anyone done this before? If you have, how did you do on the increased dosage?
