Re: numbness subsiding spontaneously/Sally

[Guest guest]

This is for Sally... I also get spontaneous remission of numbness and can walk normally most evenings starting around 9:30 pm.It's thrilling, but it's gone when I wake up in the am. It's almost like a dream.

As I write this, I am nearly six months into LDN and six months into anexacerbation. I imagine this one may be a permanent change for me by now.I am numb on the left side with numbness in both feet. I feel mentally foggyquite often. I am taking 3-mg LDN. I have missed a few doses, but basicallyhave taken this since Dec.19. The exacerbation started on Dec. 17.I am doing the supplements that Dr. Lawrence recommends. With those, aswell, I have missed a few days. I am going to start BBD. Earlier in mydiagnosis, this plus juicing improved the symptoms.I am getting weary of feeling so nasty. I am still walking, but feels as ifI am walking on stilts (and, at 5'11", that can be a bit intimidating!LOL!). I feel I am short-changing my kids. I wonder if by my starting thisduring an exacerbation it is taking longer to help? I also notice thatif/when I wake up around 3 in the morning, things feel normal with nonumbness at all. Anyone else do this? Weird! I does encourage me, though, toknow that the nerves are not "dead."Thoughts? Thanks for listening to yet another whine!Sally in Indiana

You are right, evening seems to be the better time. I wish it were day time when you need to get things done.
