I AM CHECKING OUT EVERYTHING I CAN ABOUT THE LDN THERAPY FOR MS. SOOOO MANY OF YOU HAVE GIVEN ME SUCH GREAT ADVICE, AND HOPE. BUT.....
I SEE YOU CAN'T TAKE YOUR PAIN MEDS WHILE ON LDN. I AM IN SEVERE AND CONSTANT PAIN, BOTH MUSCULAR AND NERVE PAIN. I TAKE LYRICA 3X A DAY (IT IS CONSIDERED A NARCOTIC DUE TO IT'S ABILITY TO POTENTIATE OTHER NARCOTICS) FOR NERVE PAIN AND VICODEN 7.5 MG 4-5 TIMES A DAY.
OK, SO MY QUESTION IS...IF YOU TAKE LDN, WHAT DO YOU DO FOR PAIN? DID YOU HAVE SEVERE PAIN BEFORE TAKING LDN? DID YOU HAVE TO WITHDRAWL FROM NARCOTICS FIRST? WHAT ABOUT NERVE PAIN?
ANY HELP WOULD BE GREAT!!! EVERYONE HAS BEEN SO HELPFUL. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...

People in pain can take Darvocet, if that works for you, then that's the one to take.
Vicoden, no.
IIRC, The Pain Killers will work, it's the LDN that becomes useless. I think LDN is 'food' for the pain killers. So it's not that you'll be in pain, it'll be like you're not even taking LDN.
The problem being, one's first doses of the pain killer may not work as well until the LDN is gone, so more would be needed, and time being in pain would be longer.
I have taken darvocet, before being on LDN, but not since. When I'm in pain I go to my chiros, but I also deal with the pain most of the time. It has to be real bad for me to scream for something.
I haven't had so much as a 'cold' since the month I started. Every time I thought I was getting something, by the time I said "Uh Oh", it was gone.
The worst I had, medically speaking, was a killer staph infection, and within 2 doses of Levaquin, the Red Alert was back to Yellow. My podiatrist couldn't believe it, he'd never seen anything like that before (23 yrs experience).

Once on LDN you may no longer have the nerve pain, especially if you have a really good chiropractor working with you. But how do you Transition from one to the Other? I Don't know!
