I take opiods on a regular basis and my MD said I would have to come off it to take LDN. that lets say our body is like an electrical socket, and LDN is like a plug for a lamp. Opiods are like a plug for a lamp. If you take LDN it fills in that plug, so its no longer available for your lamp to plug in. Your lamp would have to keep circulating the room in search of a new plug, but would find LDN is occupying all the circuits, and then wash away. LDN in high doses is used to detox heroin addicts, and it does so by blocking the receptors that use those naracotic plugs. The narcs now cant get plugged in to have any effect.

When I spoke to skips they told me that I would have to come off the opiods to make use of LDN, and while they wouldnt stop me from trying, they had concern that my pain would not be well controlled without benefit of my normal meds.

I really wanted to try LDN, but I cant give up what keeps me walking.
