Eddie, don't give up on it even if you have a few side effects like waking up in the middle of the night, colorful dreaming, or some minor other thing. These go away over time. It means it is working. Best of luck to you.

Thank you Lady & i'm actually looking forward to the dreams

I didn't sleep for ---- last night after taking it. Tomorrow i'm taking it during the day & see if it gives me energy.
ZZzzzzz....

Eddie, it messed with my sleep in the beginning, too. Especially when I upped my dose to 4.5 mg. I just toughed it out and after about a week it settled down into the pattern I'm still in. I napped alot during those days, too. Basically, I slept whenever I could. Now, I'm still up and down throughout the night but it's a schedule I can live with and I quite often nap during the day.

It doesn't work that way Ed. Go back to the LDN site and read the instructions.

um, how long will it take for these dreams to subside? they are so vivid they are tiring!

I still have them. I've gotten used to them but at first they were a little tiring.

Eddie, Sally's right. Taking LDN during the day doesn't provide the benefits. If you can tough it out for a little while you'll be glad you did.

Thanks all but I exercise/workout way too hard during the day to feel like this. I'll try it during the day for kiicks anyway cause I know, I actually tell people at group when to take it.

My question's why not take a drug that increases endorphins? Tell me how it wouldn't be as good if a higher level of it is what does the majic. I'll ask dr tomorrow.

Eddie, I tried to get up to 4.5 mg of LDN, but never made it. I did 1.5 mg for ten days then when to 3.0 mg and have stayed there. Going up to 3.0 mg was a big adjustment for me, sleep wise and dream wise.

Our bodies are different and react to meds different. We make endorphins while we sleep. Example: If you were a night worker, you can take it in the day before you sleep during the day.

I don't know if it works the same, taking it during the day and sleeping at night???

Perhaps take it earlier in the evening and then go to bed? JMO

I'm thinking of going from 4.5 (which I started at, at new year's) to 3 - how will i know if it is working or not at the lower dose? I'm on Tysabri as well, so I don't know if I can really tell what the LDN is or isn't doing, though I think it has helped with fatigue.
