Hi Adam,

For some reason (unknown to me) most people take the Cal.Mag & sel at night and the vit. C in the morning/day. It might be for spasms or for a sleeping aid. As I have seen reports of using Mag for both of those. You did good separating out the C & the sel. and they will cancel each other out if taken in the same time frame.

I hope that helps

I believe that colloidal silver is not to be taken for extended

periods. 10 days max.

My name is Bruce Kujawa, I have secondary progressive MS and

have been on LDN,4.5 mg since March 30. Since starting LDN, I have new symptoms

including when I sit down, I struggle to stand to get up and move. My balance

is worse and I have difficulty moving around. My physician has advised me to

stop the LDN and give my body time to adjust.

I also take a Copaxone injection each evening. My daily

vitamin, other medication schedule includes a multivitamin, Baclofen, Lipitor,

vitamin E, fish oil, Creatine and Lexapro.

Any other thoughts, ideas would be welcome. Thanks

Hi Bruce:

I too have MS, and I also Believe that I am secondary

progressive. I have been taking LDN now for 6 months,

first 2.5 months were wonderful and then I began

having more and more symptoms, it got to the point

where I spoke to my neurologist/MS specialist his

recommendation was to lower my dosage down to 3.0 Some

say that is the dosage to stay at for people with MS,

so at this point I am still experimenting, no 2 days

alike for me. I have been having symptoms such as

numbness in torso and down my left leg, tightness and

increased spasticity in my legs and feet, and now I

have tremor in my hands, all of this really sucks, but

I am determined to stick with the LDN and wait for the

symptoms to settle. I have now been on 3.0 for 1 month

and haven't really noticed all that much of a

difference but I will give it another few months at

that dosage in the hopes that things settle down soon.

Maybe this too is something you should consider.

All the best. Let us know how your doing.

Instead of giving up LDN, how about stopping Copaxone for awhile.

Sounds like your doctor is anti-LDN.

If anyone is having problems with LDN and getting disappointed I

suggest you go to this website and spend some time reading and

studying.

Hi Bruce,

The statin drugs like Lipitor diminish your body's ability to make

Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), which is necessary for cardiac function and

good health. It's generally advised to supplement with CoQ10 if it's

necessary for you to take a statin.

Best wishes,

B.

It takes time for the benefits of LDN to become apparent - months or, in my

case, about a

year - and some people initially experience temporary flareups of old symptoms.

Not

everyone experiences symptom relief - the idea is to slow or stop progress. In

any case, if

you've only been taking it since March 30, that's far too soon to judge whether

it's for you.

After about a year I started getting MRI's showing NO NEW PROGRESS. I gradually

got some

symptom relief, as well, although my fatigue never really lessened much. But

most

important, I had to work my way up SLOWLY to the full dose of 4.5 mg & I was at

3 mg for

many months. It took me more than a year, but it was worth it.

For MANY PEOPLE, myself included, 4.5 mg is far to big a dose to begin with; for

some, it's

too big a dose, period. Rather than stopping, however, which isn't really going

to help you

get used to it, what I would recommend is going down to 3 mg & see what happens.

If

you're still experiencing negative effects, go to 1.5 mg. Then work your way

slowly up as

high as you can comfortably go. Quite a few people stay at 3 mg and a few even

at 1.5.

You can do this by dividing your capsules or asking your physician to write

prescriptions

for the smaller sizes.
