I am really surprised. Due to poor planning on my part, I ran out of LDN yesterday, and didn’t get my refill until today. So I was without LDN last night for the first time since I started taking it. I was fine this morning, and figured that missing just one dose probably won’t do much of anything. Well, I was wrong. The very first MS symptom that LDN helped with was my tremors. Oh how quickly I forgot what it felt like to have difficulty controlling my fingers/hands/arms. My intention tremor is back, not full force, but very noticeable. In fact, I am having problems typing, which is something that I haven’t felt since I started LDN. What a luxury it is to be able to take LDN tonight, and know that I will be much improved in short order. I guess being reminded of how things could be much worse is a good idea now and then.

Well, sorry this is gross, but I started to go to the bathroom a little today. I need to go a lot more. That is my goal for the next week or two. My legs are week. I think if I got my digestive system working I might feel better. Boy, they are calling me at USC trying to get me back on Tysabri. I feel it's for the money.

Yep, Marion, only one missed dosage and my symptoms come flooding back too. I was relieved when the anesth... said I didn't have to miss Sunday's dose.

Seriously, try benefibre Jnet. Works like a charm for me and I have gone WEEKS without going prior to finding that remedy.

Being stopped up like that does affect my symptoms, FOR SURE!! I have no idea why that would be , but as soon as things get going again, I am back to status quo. Good luck with that!

WELCOME BACK, SALLY . . . I MISSED YOU.

Has anyone tried one of the colon cleanses that are advertised nowadays? It cleans your insides (for lack of a better description) and supposedly gets your body back in balance.

I have used Dual-Action Cleanse in the past (pre MS) and ordered it again to take. I've been taking it since Wednesday and the difference in how I feel is incredible.

You do the cycle for 30 days on and 30 days off. It just consists of taking two pills in the AM and two in the PM. I don't get the bad side effects some of the cleanses cause you to have. But I do feel sooooo much better just since starting this.

I do believe a healthy digestive system plays a big part in your overall health and well being. This along with the LDN have made a huge difference for me. Medications can slow your digestive and elimination processes....and I have found that since I've stopped most of my meds (Neurontin, Baclofen, my AD, and sleep aids) my system is returning to normal. Of course, always consult with your doctor before beginning one of these cleanses.

I dropped down cause it was knocking me out I was lethargic at best, got to admit today i got that duh feeling, I dont like it, but I had a rough night so shall give it 5 days or so to see any diff in leg pain and the lethargic feeling

Herekitty, How did you know when you could start dropping your meds? How long have you been on LDN? I think I may have secondary progressive now.. I takr a lot of stuff and would love to drop some.

About the colon cleanse. I would be home bound for a while. I guess after Thanksgiving I could do it and make that commitment. I hate this and have never done this before, but I might have to wear a depends at night if I did this. Sometimes when I go, I have to go right then. I hate ms.

As far as benefiber goes, I do use it sometimes but I have to use more than the normal person. I have the chewable pills. That's why my gastro has me on konosyl.

Frank, I just doubt that LDN is having that lathargic effect on you.. Could it be one of your other Meds and maybe LDN is not mixing well with it?

LDN usually has the opposit effect, as it causes you to be up, because of the raise in endorphins...it may even cause insomnia at first.

I sure hope you can get this worked out. I want you to benefit from the 3mg LDN, as I don't think the lower doseage does much.

Good Luck.

I was taking Neurontin, Baclofen and Zoloft. The Neurontin was causing me to gain lots of weight. The Baclofen made me woozy and even dizzier and I just felt like I didn't need the Zoloft after starting LDN. I weaned myself off each drug so as not to shock my system and had no problems. Now, the only meds I take are my BP medication, my thyroid medication and the LDN. I may not even need to take my BP med much longer because my BP has been on the low side of normal for about three months now.

If you are on lots of meds I wouldn't suggest stopping them all at once....or any of them without speaking to your doctor first. I'm not sure what you're taking but some meds require a doctor's assistance to wean off correctly.

You can read more about the Colon Cleanse by going to www.dualactioncleanse.com. It's a good product and I just do the "good" program and it's sufficient for me.

Good luck!

Hi Folks...Just catching up on my reading of your posts, since my DSL outage. I went through an anxiety attack and my MS numbness ramped up, yesterday. At Bedtime, I took my LDN and this morning, all was back to normal..

So thats my "thank you" LDN story...Wheeee!!!!





That's my LDN Doc (Dr. S) ...What a nice Guy..

Mine, too! I just luv him! Wish all docs could be so kind.
