What dose of LDN is he on now? Does he get LDN in liquid or capsule? His potassium or magnesium may be low, possible ear problem, sinus infection.

Guest guest Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 Is your Father drinking coffee? I had trouble with dizziness after I started LDN. I took me a couple of weeks to figure it out but it was the combination of coffee and LDN that was making me dizzy. I haven't been dizzy once since I stopped drinking caffeinated coffee. You might want to have him give it a try.All The Best, ...helpful support groups for people with MSLDN_Users & www.ldnusers.orglow dose naltrexonemscuredTheChronicIllnessCafeMySpace URL: http://www.myspace.com/jasonvaccaro On Oct 2, 2006, at 7:49 PM, Destiny wrote:Hi everyone,My Dad has been on LDN since 10/04 between 3mg and5mg, depending.
