I STARTE LDN ABOUT TWO MONTHS AGO. I MADE THE MISTAKE OF UPPING TO 4.5 MG BECAUSE I FELT GOOD AND I THOUGHT MORE WOULD HELP MORE. BIG MISTAKE. I AM BACK AT THREE MG AND TRYING TO GET IT BACK.. ALSO I WAS USING CANNABIS SPRAY WHICH REACTED BADLY WITH LDN. I WILL CONTINUE WITH JUST LDN AND HOPEFULLY IT WILL READJUST. TIME WILL TELL. SUCH A LITTLE PILL IS POWERFUL BUT I THINK IT IS AMAZING. I AM ALSO TRYING ELEVATED BED THERAPY.

It was really difficult for me to sleep while on it. I think its unhealthy to be awake all night nocturnal like. I think the point is to sleep through the effects, so if you are staying awake all night then the timing of the dose becomes irrelevant. Some people have advocated changing the dosage schedule to the AM since they cant sleep through the effects anyway, or starting off in the AM and gradually taking it later in the day until they can sleep through it.

LDN seemed to improve my energy levels and state of mind but my Crohns continued to worsen in a bad way while on it and I thought it would help both conditions. For me it didnt. I had to go off of it when I got on opiate pain medications due to my Crohns acting up so badly.

Have been taking LDN for about five years now & never plan to stop. The first week or so I had trouble sleeping, but after that I got to 3mg. where I will continue to stay. Energy levels improved, bladder now completely normal. Can now walk with a cane after years in a chair!

Find a dose that feels good & stay there.

I am now working on a documment where I write details of what I do. I nvolves diet, supplements & diet. Makes for intereting reading .

darcie...do you take any DMD too? or have you in the past?

I just went to neuro today....he really wants me to start DMD along with the LDN.

I started the LDN just five days ago at 1.5mg and going to up to 3mg after 2 weeks.

sorry feel stupid here but what is LDN?
