RE: Need help to start LDN?

[Guest guest]

Hi all

I started LDN last night on a 1.5mg dosage and I'm looking for a little advice and info.

Dr Gilhooly said to take it in the morning and not at night (which I know isn't the desired way from keeping track of the group's messages). I'm unsure as to whether that's because so many report nightmares as a side effect.

I took it last night.

Is it best to take it right before going to sleep or just in the evening....and whilst I know this is probably a dumb question, why is it that we should take it before bed? (an answer will help me inform my hubby). lol

Also, do I need to check my thyroid first? - and if so, why? (again to refresh my memory and let the hubby know)

Is the Best Bet Diet OK whilst on LDN?

Is there anything I should be taking notice of which might impede or impact using the medication?

What should I be expecting and what sort of timeline is usual for things?

Ugh! You'd think I never read any of the emails. I guess it's different when you're actually starting it!

Thankyou for your help all - it will be much appreciated!

You need to take 50 ml mineral water or distilled water,put the 50 mg tablet.do it all in a Brown glass,shake it good and keep it in the fridge.every night after 22.00 take the amount you want in ml.it is not bad taste at all put it in abit water and drink.you can start at 3 mg and if you are worried at 1.5 and raise after some time.you can draw it with a syringe without needle

First you must write,why do you take ldn.

Most doctors recommend to take ldn after 22.00 because the

endorphines are produced between 02.00-04.00

Thankyou EVERYONE who replied to me!

You've all been a lot of help.

To answer a couple of queries:

my purpose for taking LDN is to help with the symptoms of 'MS'/CCSVI.

I had heard about one person talking about probs with their thyroid and their thyroid medication when they were starting taking LDN. I just wanted to double check whether or not I needed to check it out prior to starting LDN for best results.

My question about the Best Bet Diet was in reference to its lack of certain foods which are generally considered 'healthy' and 'good for you' but actually aren't for people who have been diagnosed with 'MS'. I can see that my diet is actually very good and will work well in conjunction with LDN.

I've had no nightmares (which I'd heard was something that can happen) and haven't had any vivid dreams or sleep disturbance at all.

Thankyou all again for taking the time to respond to a 'newbie' who has actually been reading the posts for about a year, but who has been very quiet and who, in her brain fog, has suddenly had questions pop into her head - hence the fear of being seen as asking 'stupid questions'. lol

Your help has reassured me and I thank you sincerely.
