RE: anyone get worse before they get better?

[Guest guest]

Hi Carla

I don’t know if you’ve been

following the thread on the iron issues associated with shaking the bottle, but

it may be relevant to you if you dissolve your own tablets.

Certainly Ive been struggling all year

with as ESR way over a hundred and have seen it only very slowly reduce but

have been plagued with much worse inflammation in recent months so expect it to

have gone back up – until recent weeks that is when I have altered things

including not shaking the bottle.

Good luck.

Check out how hig an Omega 3 EPA you take

too.

anyone get worse before they get better?

I've been

on LDN since nov. 16 and this is the worst set of tests

results I've had since getting out of the hospital 2 years ago.

my sed rate is 87!!!!!

it's horrible!

I've been sugar free and taking oil of oregano for about a month (to

kill off yeast) and taking vit D (liquid) for about a month, take my

LDN every night at 12:38AM (I set my alarm on my watch)

and am gluten free and dairy free (i have a little cheese maybe once a

week at most, when eating out, on a salad). my diet is pretty strict.

i also don't eat or drink nutrasweet.

If my sed rate gets any higher I'm going to have to go back on

prednisone, and the whole point of me going on LDN was to avoid the

prednisone/ weight gain/ mood swings/ hair loss/ bone thinning, etc.

that i've already been through 3 times.

I'm extremely discouraged and worried. how long should i go on with

this high sed rate before giving up on LDN?

inflammation is very dangerous and I have gone up in sed rate by 23

points since starting LDN.

Forgive my ignorance but what is sed rate? - Quite often in this support group,

lots of abbreviations are used and I have no idea what

they mean.......sorry
