Guest guest Posted January 8, 2005 Report Share Posted January 8, 2005 Has your lameness and soreness continued or abated now? endalsnow wrote: I have been experimenting with LDN for ALS and have been on 3mg. for only a few days.

I also had a few weird sensations which seemed to come from the nerve itself, something I have never felt with my disease. I have heard others talk about stiffness, but that is not what I would really describe my side effects like; more soreness and lameness upon awakening and during the night. Usually starting out the day is when I feel my best and not bad all things considered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
