Re: DL Phenalalnine & Extra Energy

[Guest guest]

OK! Now I know! I was taking the DL Phenalanine (sp?) here a while back, as it is supposed to help extend the endorphins through the day, thus increasing energy. I finally gave up, thinking it wasn't working for me. (I take 4.5mg LDN w/Avicel filler. Have for nearly two years.) Yesterday, while cleaning out my cabinet of meds, herbs, and supplements, I came across some extra DL. So, I thought I would try it, or at least use it up. Yesterday and today my energy level has been noticeably better. Even my son commented on it. So, I guess it was helping after all. I looked back, and when I originally tried it, I was also starting a new script for spasms (Primidone), and it definately made me weak. I'm back on the supplement, as it didn't seem to affect my blood pressure.

PS - Also, I worked today. (Dispatch at the Police Dept) After work, I wheeled across the street to the Post Office. A man stopped me and asked if I had MS. I told him, "Yes." He wanted to know what meds I take because his wife, who is in a wheelchair too, with MS could in no way do what I was. It was very warm and sunny. He said the heat would kill her. I told him about LDN and offered my phone number. Word of mouth!
