I may have said this before, brain fog.

This may sound odd, but I always dread my annual Mammograms because they plain old hurt me. While on the LDN I had it done and did not feel any pain during or after. Minor pain, compared to usual. It was at the same place, same woman, same squeeze job. I was all set to wake up sore the next day too, but I wasn't.

There must be something in the way that the LDN works, that changes the way your brain perceives pain signals. Now about this MS Hug thingy. Hmm Okay a little at a time. I'll take any positive improvement.

Joelle, Good for you! I'm glad you'll ask your doctor since you just came off the pain pills. You did it. Who-Hoo

After 10 days I went to 3.0 mg. I saw more benefit, with the same first few nights of wake, look around, wake look around. It was not insomnia. I fell right back to sleep. And I still have vivid dreams from day one. 12-15-08.

What I have been doing is I open the capsule/s and put all the contents in applesauce, or pudding on a tablespoon. I thought the capsule took too long to dissolve. This is just what I do.

It is a pain in the neck opening them and not be spilling any. But I think I get more pure drug that way faster.

I have to ask my doctor if it is okay? I just did it on my own, because pills get stuck when I swallow.

Lady, I think it's fine because my doctor told me to open the capsules and put them into water. This was suggested to help me titrate up to a higher dose without going all the way to 4.5 at one time. He suggested opening a 3.0 and a 1.5 and putting them into 3 oz. of water and drinking only about 3/4 of it. That way I'd get approximately 3.75 mg. I would think that putting the capsule contents into any kind of easily swallowed food would be fine.
