after reading some of these posts i started to wonder a bit more about what drugs would interact with the LDN about.com had a link to another page, drugs.com, where you can enter all the meds youre onand get the known potential interactions.i mean everything youre on.your RX med, OTC, herbal stuff all of it.for example... my check came back with 899 other meds that 'may' interact with naltrexone.tramodol had 1189 granted,this is with naltrexone taken at the normal dose of 50mg or more.but forewarned is forearmed.

Hi everyone

Going through the withdrawls of the tramadol was just
absolutly horrible.
I haven't had a nights sleep since last thursday night.
The worse is over and am going to make it.

You put your trust in drs. here I had on wed. at my
visit one dr. giving a scrip for LDN and the other for the TRAMADOL

No explanations that this is not a good pair to meet.

Well I found out the hard way, at one time there I just wanted to
dye.
The good news I feel a lot stronger today. Will keep on
fighting. The best news is the fingers I am using to type this note to
you are working great. No pain, numbness, sharp tingle. It has disappeared
since taking LDN even though there was other meds in my body to get rid
of..

To me this is the happiest day for me I can use all 10 fingers
I am still very tired from lack of sleep and am going to try to lay down
and get some rest.


please all say a prayerfor me THANK YOU!!!!!

I'm so sorry you've had such a hard time, Jappy. I'm happy you're sticking with it and giving LDN a chance. I think you'll be glad you did. Hang in there! :)

Thanks, Flute and WOOHOO, Jappy...it sounds like LDN is doing it's job. Sorry about the withdrawal pain...that's awful. Prayers are coming to you..:hug:

Jappy, you did it. Whooo-hoooo :hug:

Sending prayers your way for the LDN to work for you more with each passing day. Withdrawals are not fun, but sometimes a necessary evil.

Glad that your hands and fingers are getting a positive response to the LDN.:)

We are your cheering team.:grouphug:

I finally slept last night. After this past week I feel like and old
washed out washcloth.

Seriously now, I called the dr again, his asst. called and we went over
everything that has been happening. She is supposed to talk to him and
call me back.

I am serious this girl did not know what I was talking about with the
LDN and its fighting the narcotic that is in my body.:confused:

She said she was writing everything down and will get back to me later.

I was asking what kind of none narcotic pain med there is, because my
body is now playing FOOTBALL WITH IT!!

The fibro is acting up. But one thing that I am still very happy about
is that I am still able to use the three fingers on my right hand still very
good.

LDN IS STILL WORKING AND GETTING ALL OF THE
OTHER ARTIFICAL JUNK IN MY BODY OUT GIVEN BY THE Hmmmm you know
who. We don't need a Med. Degree, but we know more.

Thanks to all my NT friends You are the greatest

LDN After one year:
 

It was just about a year ago that I began to take LDN. This time last year, I always carried my power chair in my handicap van. I always used the chair away from home, except for the rare occasion when I had been where I was going before, and I knew the walker would be a better choice.

This year? What a change! The power chair has been in the garage since some time last winter. When I worry that the battery will go bad if I don’t charge and discharge it, I smile and count myself lucky to have such a worry.

I am proud of the fact that I have enough common sense to know that if I need the walker, I NEED THE WALKER. I reserve the right to have my limitations show. But I am also rarely in need of the walker.

At least two times (three?) in the last year I have interrupted my use of LDN. The results were awful. It is easy to forget how bad I feel without LDN, but the reminder of the facts are only a missed-dose or two away.

Lately I’ve slacked off a bit in my usual routine of exercise and eating right. That’s OK, though. Fall is a lovely time to get caught up in that sort of thing again.

I am much better off than I was a year ago. I wonder what year two will bring.

Jappy, That's good news. :) Maybe Aleve or one of those types of pain relievers can help you. Something OTC.

Marion, Good for you. I am glad to hear that you are better off than you were a year ago because of LDN. I am over 8 months on LDN now, and much better off too. So many improvements it's like a miracle.

I hope year two brings you even more benefits. :hug:

Jappy, you don't want to be taking conflicting meds, but some people do go through initial side-effects from LDN too. When I tried to go up to 4.5mg the first time, my spasticity came back. I dropped back down, and tried again in about a month ... and that time had no problems.

Good Morning



I am so happy to say that last night I slept with minimal pain.

Woke up this morning and sat at the side of the bed and realized
I didn't have the horrible pain I usually wake up with.

I started crying, LDN is working. got rid of all the other
meds in the body. It got them out or under control whatever.

Believe it or not, like I said early in the week I have use of my right
fingers again, this morning I gave myself a "Haircut" I used to be one of
those (never went to beautican school) I was taught by a neighbor years
ago (who was a licensed beautican). I did what they call the
"Funk Style"
My beautican in NJ always wanted to do this to me and I wouldn't
Today I just felt crazy.

Sorry about the long note, I am just so happy that I am wired up, I
just want to talk, talk, talk,


Thanks for the prayers and well wishes everyone!
