Guest guest Posted April 5, 2005 Report Share Posted April 5, 2005 I was also dizzy with nausea from Skip's LDN with avicel. Lactose and acidolphillus fillers worked better. --- In low dose naltrexone , " dynaman1 " <yurstruly@y...> wrote: > > Just talked to Skip who said that unless I'm allergic to paper, the > dizziness wouldn't be from Avicel which is cellulose-based.

My sickness from Avicel lasted 2 weeks and I switched to lactose and immediately felt much better. I'm allergic to Avicel and a few others have found they are too.
