Guest guest Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 Hi, I don't know if you generally send out 'newby' messages of introduction or not (I didn't see any recent ones). Soo I am about five weeks in on LDN TD (Transdermal) and I'm only at 2/5 a dose (syringe is in fifths) because I have MCS (multiple chemical sensitivities) and the symptoms are such that I have to wait until I get a pulse oximeter before I can raise the dose the rest of the way. (I mean a real hospital style one to use at night, it's the thing they put on the edge of your finger when you're in the E.R. or on telemetry.) By using the kind that saves data over days and uploads to a computer we can watch and see if my oxygen lvls are effected as i go along and gradually increase the dosage. Win-win also because the alarm etc would wake me up if it becomes critical and they'll be able to see the progression from the charts that it has in the software. Many people aren't aware that they have CNS (Central Nervous System Disorders) and that they do not tolerate anything that crosses the blood/brain barrier or causes alpha wave intrusions. (Usually from a mold or toxic chemical exposure that may or may not be obvious when it happens.) The issue with medications that are taken in rhythm with the sleep cycle is that it could mimic this kind of thing and since I can't even take a benadryl or a pain pill for any of my pain related illnesses (Lupus, Fibro, etc) I have to manage my illness through using an anti-inflammation nutrition plan and seasonings etc that do the same. I cannot use pain killers or anything that can have a drowsy effect, not even benadryl. That's why the doctor finally decided to try LDN. In my case tho I couldn't take it by mouth so I'm using the TD form of it in case there was some reactions so I could scrape it off or whatever instead of having to worry about having a reaction that would kill me if I don't 'ease into it'. I only got 2/5 of the way before the dose started showing signs of intruding on those areas so I'm wondering if anyone else has had that kind of thing. I also just had some test results for very low Vit D and B-12, do any of you have to take it - if so what do you use that you like most? It's nice to see how many of you are active here. Anything specific I should know about this group? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 Hi, Joy Sounds like we have similar conditions..and like you have learned a lot! I am looking forward to getting stared on the LDN, so I'm not of any help there. Yet, I would like to suggest Ultra D Complex by Apex Energetics. It has a combo of co-factors that help with assimilation - which I have a genetic problem with...and with emulsified D it is safer to take higher doses. Apex Energetics also has NeuroFlam that repairs the breach or permeability issue with the blood brain barrier. It is a professional line of products...mostly available through nutritionally oriented licensed medical practitioners -so if you have trouble finding it let me know. Many of the doctors through the Carrick Institute that focus on functional neurology also work with these products. I have to avoid supplements with Magnesium stearate and some other added fillers...so you may want to check any B 12 supplement and if you have a doctor to prescribe...the methlycobalimin assimilates better.
