Yes, I know that it is not recommended to discontinue LDN from what I have read on this thread, but it is still a drug and I would prefer to not be taking anything if at all possible.
So 3 days ago I stopped the LDN...and resumed taking it yesterday.

In short, I am now of the opinion that the improvements are due to both the LDN and a potential remission; but within the first 24 hours of the first missed dose, I was already having cognitive issues (memory mostly), general incoordination and muscular weakness, visual blurriness and whole body fatigue.

Along with that, an ankle that had become swollen and sore (apparently due to an infection and sprain) three weeks ago, flared up immediately within that 24 hours.
It had begun to improve over the last week, but I am now packing it in ice several times a day and through the night, as well as using a topical anti-inflammatory in an attempt to bring the heat, swelling and pain under control once again.
If these measures don't work more than they have since starting them 2 days ago, I will likely be looking at another round of antibiotics and/or some other form of treatment; as it is difficult and very painful to walk with it.

With love, Erika
