Guest guest Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 Brand new in fact, just took my 1st dose (3mg) last night. I slept pretty good and thankfully no nightmares or vivid dreams (hubby and I sure prayed about that and for no other bad side effects, I have had so many). I was prescribed this by my LLMD. I have late stage Lyme disease. One reason I remember her prescribing it(don't have a good memory and my notes about the ldn weren't good) is for Interstitial Cystitis, plus I have IBD, and a host of other things from the Lyme. Also, in a new Lyme book I just bought it says this author (LLMD) is having exciting results with ldn!!! My friends have helped me with some info already. One has been trying to get me to consider taking ldn for a long time now, imagine my shock when my LLMD handed me a script for it, with 9 other scripts. I told my LLMD she has just made one of my friends very happy. LOL Anyway, I am on Lialda for the IBD. Does anybody know if there is a problem with taking that and the ldn? The reg drug site I use said there isn't, but I have found that they are not always accurate. I am taking a good bit of meds, and just recently stopped 3 or 4, because of side effects and being overwhelmed. I am, also, on a ton of natural supplements. Are there any contraindicated? As far as I could find on the ldn.org site I can take my ldn with my meds. Btw, I am getting mine from Skip's, thanks to my friend's suggestion and in researching I found almost everybody was mentioning Skip's. Thanks. hugs PS I have stopped taking narcotics and really didn't take them much at all, in spite of being told to (because chronic pain).

Guest guest Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 THE LYME DISEASE SOLUTION by Dr. Singleton. If you get it from amazon.com you can get free shipping. Is Valium and Zanaflex ok to take with the ldn? It wasn't on the list, but I don't want to mess things up. I have to switch up on Ambien CR, because it is ineffective if I take it more than 2-3 consecutive nights and so use valium (which isn't very effective, but so far it's one that isn't giving me terrible side effects). Also, I think, stress on " think " , that the Ambien CR is messing with memory taking it more often. I can't be sure, because of my flare and having tried so many new scripts all at once lately, but reg. Ambien did it to me. The zanaflex I have taken for years due to muscle spasms. I cut out the daytime dose a long time ago, but really need to go back on it, but hate being drowsy. Even after yrs. I was still a tad bit tired, now quite drowsy. I just read that zanaflex is toxic in high doses. Mine isn't high, but like I said I've been taking it for yrs. I am going to ask my LLMD if there is something else. Not Flexeril, that kicked my butt and bad! Baclofen worked, but that was more for spasticity, which I no longer have. Any suggestions? I am going back to bed right after I eat a piece of toast, because my night was not good. The valium will not help me sleep, but a few hrs. unless I am pain free and last night was far from pain free! I am going to cont. to do a quick search in the meantime, because taking zanaflex before I go back to bed would be a real help. jan > > Hi > > What is the title of this new Lyme disease book and who is the author. > > Thanks, > > mjh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 I guess I'm glad I'm taking LDN then, because I just found out I tested positive for the Lyme Western Blot test.

Guest guest Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 www.canlyme.com is an excellent site for everything about Lyme coinfections, and drs' articles about diagnoses it mimics. There is a good symptom page and there is a link for forums (Discussion). Also, there is a group you can sign up with, lymeinfo, and you get emails of Lyme news. The other ldn (newgenldnusers) has at least one other Lymie (my friend) who has been using ldn for some time now. I just joined this one and that this past week. jan > > I guess I'm glad I'm taking LDN then, because I just found out I > tested positive for the Lyme Western Blot test.
