You are so very welcome Frank..:)

I hope it does help you in some way. I'll keep my fingers crossed.:hug:

Hi Sally! I've started the ball rolling for me to get my prescription for LDN. I have to fill out some paperwork and send it back first.

Do you know if you can take LDN with Zoloft? What about Neurontin and Baclofen? I know these are all questions I should ask the doctor during my phone session but I want to talk and listen fast since it's a "per minute" charge!! :o

Kelly I called and picked my local RX's brain, about all my other meds and this new one, he knew about LDN and double checked it all out with me

Yeaaaa, Kelly..:) Yes, yes and yes to the meds you mentioned. I took Paxil and now Prozac whilst on LDN and Neuronton and baclofen for a short while, but found I didn't need them anymore. I'm still on Prozac..;)

Any other questions, be sure to ask.....and good luck..:hug:

I think you are very brave to go off those strong meds to try LDN, Frank. I hope that once you ramp up on LDN, some of those problems (that you are currently using the meds for) disappear.

I wasn't on anything else, except Celexa, and I was able to ditch it eventually. I did have a LOT of spasticity pain though, for two years prior to getting on LDN. It helped in that way for me.

All the best to you three newest LDNers -- Twink, Frank and Kelly!!!! I pray it does some good things for you along with slowing down this Monster!!

Kelly -- I've been on Zoloft for years with no ill effects between the two. GOOD LUCK!!!!!

I was originally on Celexa full-time because they thought it might help with the relentless fatigue (even though I tested "not clinically depressed"). After I was able to ditch it, one year into LDN, I literally "dropped" 25 lbs, with no effort what-so-ever. The fatigue let up considerably (probably because the LDN was helping for that), I got back my libido, and the tinnitus stopped.

It's amazing how all these drugs we take can mess up other things.

thats interesting Cherie, Lately I have been weighing out, the side effects from X amount of pills every day forever? verse the side effects of MS with out all these pills, some of these meds are strong stuff my logic tells me this can not be good pumping that stuff in every day for years on end, and if I am gonna take something every day, maybe i can get it down to just LDN, thats my goal,

I'm sorry for hopping on this band-wagon, even though I do not have MS. I have RSD, which is a neurological pain disorder. I'd like to think that this med could help RSD, too. I know they are doing clinical trials for LDN in Fibro. I have heard this can be useful for really ANY autoimmune problem. And RSD is autoimmune. Does anyone have any luck with Doctors in MN who would prescribe this? Thanks so much!!

Cherie, do you think a person would need to take LDN a whole year before going off the Celexa?

Good luck Millerprof! I'd think it was worth a try. BTW, this is an LDN thread so you are welcome here!
