To all,I need answer to LDL question

[Guest guest]

I originally sent for my 3 mgs of LDN from a pharmacy in Illinois. They were

small capsules with a small amount of " air " in them. I took them for three

months. I felt they helped me as to energy and sleeping through the night. No

getting up to use the bathroom. I can't recall (senior moment) how much they

cost me, but do remember they were quite expensive.

I recently sent to Skips for 3 mgs of LDN and they were much cheaper than

order from Ill. They are small capsules just about filled with green (stuff).

I

have been on them almost two weeks, and not only did I have a setback (lotsa

pain) I was up all night and going to the bathroom at least three times. I

get about 3-4 hours sleep, and that is mostly from 6 am to 8-9 am. I called

Skip when the capsules arrived and asked him why the contents were green. First

he said it was Broccoli then he changed his mind and said it was Brussels

Sprouts. Well, this is my question. Anyone on Skips prescription (LDN)

receiving green capsules and are they getting any relief from them? Connie

Connie and Gordon,

I have been on LDN since April. I get the capsules from the

Prescription Center in LaCrosse, Wis.-- I live in Minnesota. I can

think of no reason whatsoever that the powder inside should be any

color other than white. I think I'd question them, or change

pharmacies.

I started on 4.5mg., cut back to 3 mg. after only 1 wk. because of

the stiffness.At first I did remarkably well and saw some

improvements in my speech, much less laughing at inappropriate times,

increased strength and coordination in my left hand, sleeping through

the night without getting up to use the bathroom....

Our schedule has been really hectic here since mid May and I didn't

think the LDN was working as well.Thought I was getting worse again.

I had read on the LDN site about a doctor writing in, asking if

anyone had ever tried to address some of the side effects of LDN.

Such as taking Magnesium to help the stiffness.

Two weeks ago I increased the dose again to 4.5mg. and added

magnesium to the line-up of pills I take. I think it helps. I would

recommend to anyone who has trouble with stiffness when increasing

the dosage, to try adding magnesium to see if it helps.

Since increasing the dosage to 4.5mg. I feel better again. My speech

is much clearer.

Like Parli Lynn has said, it is not a cure. But I think for anyone

who's able to get the prescription, it is worth trying.

I only went off it once, that was 2 days before the Iowa connection.

I thought I was worse by not taking it. It may have just been

coincidental?? I may try again, taking a break for 2 days and see

what happens.

Hope this helps.

I get the green capsules from Skip's. I started with 3 mg. but found

that my legs got stiff. I went off for a couple of weeks and then

started on 1.5. No more stiffness. Sleep has never been a problem.

Maybe you need to try 1.5. Skips charges $5 + change for 30

capsules, plus shipping of about $4, so it pays to order 60 or 90

for the same shipping charge. I ordered 30 because I first wanted to

see how 1.5 worked.

By the way, Skip fills 60,000 caps of LDN a month. This has turned

into a windfall for him.
