This has happened with LDN and your diet needs to change to stop these feelings and Dr. McCandless is the one who can advise you. If you do not know Dr. McCandless' contact info let me know.

Guest guest Posted October 10, 2006 Report Share Posted October 10, 2006 Thanks Bren, I need Dr. Mc Candlesses contact info. Will she charge for a phone consult or can I just email her? These symptoms are also common on Namenda. Perhaps the combination is what is bad. I really am at a bad point right now. Thanks, Sandi Messenger with Voice.

Guest guest Posted October 10, 2006 Report Share Posted October 10, 2006 sandy I didn't see your post so if you could resend I can see if i can address it. I don't know why your taking ldn (not why your taking but for what disease process), how old you are, and what other medical issues you have. cyndi On Oct 10, 2006, at 8:43 AM, Bren wrote: > >> >> Also I feel > depressed, stressed and > agitated, like I am just > ready to snap.

These symptoms are also common on Namenda. Perhaps the combination is what is bad. I really am at a bad point right now. > > Thanks, > Sandi =========== My grandma takes LDN and Namenda with no problems. Try coming off the Namenda for a few days to see if it's the Namenda. If not, it's the LDN and you may need to make some adjustments. For Jaquelyn McCandless email see link below. Click on the link and scroll down to where it says Send mail and click that. She will not charge for emailing her. She posts on this forum. Be sure to tell her about your mood ince starting LDN.

Guest guest Posted October 10, 2006 Report Share Posted October 10, 2006 Sandi, are you taking LDN for fibromyalgia? I am wondering what the chronic pain is from? I have been on LDN for one month for fibromyalgia and crest and sjrogren’s and my pain is almost gone. If I have a painful day I take a naprosyn but I was taking one a day, and now don’t need it. Perhaps LDN will be enough if the other med is giving you bad side effects. Conni [low dose naltrexone] Dizziness and Namenda and LDN Hi everyone, I posted before about being dizzy or light headed but it may not be the LDN. It may be the Namenda which I started 6 weeks before. Or perhaps the interaction of the two. Namenda is an Alzheimers med with the off label use of helping chronic pain which is what I am tkaing it for --- pain. I don't know if it helps with the pain as I am in slightly less pain, but that could be the Namenda, LDN, or various other vitamins and supplements. I do know that when I was on Namenda w/o the LDN I had bouts of dizziness when I increased the medication. Has anyone on this list taken Namenda before? Has anyone ever taken it in combo with LDN? Probably not. Also I feel depressed, stressed and agitated, like I am just ready to snap. Is that common with the LDN? Thanks, Sandi Stay in the know. Pulse on the new .com. Check it out.

Guest guest Posted October 10, 2006 Report Share Posted October 10, 2006 sandiwhy are you taking Namendathese are the side efectsSIDE EFFECTS: The most common side effect of memantine are fatigue, pain, increases in blood pressure, dizziness, headache, constipation, vomiting, back pain, confusion, somnolence, hallucination, coughing, and difficulty in breathing. The side effects are most often mild to moderate.andDRUG INTERACTIONS: Medicines that make the urine more alkaline (for example, carbonic anhydrase inhibitors such as acetazolamide (Diamox) and sodium bicarbonate would be expected to reduce the elimination of memantine by the kidneys and might increase the blood levels and the risk of side effects of memantine. Combining memantine with other NMDA receptor antagonists (for example, amantadine (Symmetrel), ketamine, and dextromethorphan) has not been evaluated and should be approached cautiously.http://www.medicinenet.com/memantine/article.htmcyndiOn Oct 10, 2006, at 8:59 AM, Sandi Sharp wrote: Thanks Bren, I need Dr. Mc Candlesses contact info.

You were also going to provide me a list of vitamins and supplements I should be taking. I sent you a list of the supps and vits I was taking while on the cancer pre-clinical protocol for anti-angeogenesis and those that I've already stopped taking. I know that you are extremely busy right now, but is there some way you can squeeze that info in so I can know what to take and what not to take? Warmly, Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
