Guest guest Posted December 3, 2000 Report Share Posted December 3, 2000 Guess my initial post also included some wishful thinking. I somehow subtracted 100 pounds from my weight! It should have read: " My weight had hit a high of over 260, although I was at 255 when I started BFL (I'm about 5'8 " ). " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 I joined last week and am trying to follow the rules. I read the website and recent posts. 1.5 mg is frequently mentioned as the lowest dose, but the website says dosages below 1.75 are likely to have no effect. " The therapeutic dosage range for LDN is from 1.75mg to 4.5mg every night. Dosages below this range are likely to have no effect at all, and dosages above this range are likely to block endorphins for too long a period of time and interfere with its effectiveness. " My doctor has decided to let me try LDN for a few months. I found a compounding pharmacy who is preparing it now. 1) I have Hashi's so will start at 1.5, per the Cautionary Warning. Can someone with this experience advise if I must stay at this dose? 2) I have symptoms of CFS and Fibro, but no confirmed diagnosis. I have Idiopathic Peripheral Neuropathy, probably autoimmune (per Neurologist). I read with interest the post about Benfotiamine. I was already taking B1 so switched to Benfotiamine. Will those with experience please email me directly to advise the effective dosage and what relief I can expect? And whether LDN helps PN symptoms? Thanks to all, Joan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
