Guest guest Posted December 5, 2004 Report Share Posted December 5, 2004 Good question, as a beginner I was wondering the same thing--having to take at the same time daily. And what if I do have a glass of wine or say a " puff " is that okay or should I not indulge in such? On Dec 5, 2004, at 8:53 AM, Joanne Longley wrote: > I take LDN at 8:00 to 9:00 PM.

Guest guest Posted December 5, 2004 Report Share Posted December 5, 2004 Friday, I have been taking LDN for 6 weeks now, and I take it every night between 9:00 to 9:30. Every morning, I now wake up at 8:00 and cannot go back to sleep no matter how hard I try. The LDN has put me on a strict regimen, Ha! Ha! And, for it, I do feel better all day long. Heck! I just might be able to go back to work. Peace! VCL Hi Group, Good to see that you are all well from your posts and its all positive . My question is, how many of you take LDN at exactly the same time every evening and how many use to be vigilant with the time, like myself, and have now become complacent and take it any time between the times we are told to? For those who apply to the latter scenario, do you feel your 'recovery' or battle of symtoms and ldn benefits are any less for doing so? For example, I use to take LDN in the beginning at exactly 10:30pm for weeks. I have missed a dose here and there due to forgetfullness or chosing to because I was having wine/spirits on that particular night. Over time, and up to now, I began to take LDN any time after 10pm. Sometimes 11pm, sometimes 12 or even 12:30am. I must admit, in the beginning, my symptom relief was instantaneous and my energy endless......now? deminishing although not back to my pre-LDN days thank goodness. Any similar experiences?

Guest guest Posted December 5, 2004 Report Share Posted December 5, 2004 I've become more casual about the time, but it is still between 9 and 10:30. I don't see as much benefit in the form of energy and "feeling good" that I did in the beginning, but that change occurred while I was still very careful about the time I was taking it, not after I became more relaxed about it.

Guest guest Posted December 5, 2004 Report Share Posted December 5, 2004 , Honestly I never drink or smoke two reasons: Family history of heart attack is great. I am at risk for all kinds of heart problems. My trygliserides are in the 600's and I take lipitor and tricore: again heredity. Doc said "no wine" I have never smoked so I don't. I pray a whole lot and exercise.

Guest guest Posted December 5, 2004 Report Share Posted December 5, 2004 Puff's fine, alcohol is questionable since it goes the same route as the LDN. I take my LDN after midnight almost all the time. There were from Friday's when I took it at 10 or 11 before crashing, but mostly after midnight. Lately I think I've been managing to take it before 1:10AM every day, but for a long while I was taking it anywhere between 12:30 and 3AM. Haven't noticed any changes or fluctuations because of it though. Nothing I could put my finger on, anyway.

Guest guest Posted December 5, 2004 Report Share Posted December 5, 2004 I usually take my LDN tablet at 11pm, this I do most of the time, there were no different feelings when I took it earlier or later. Zor, T & T, West Indies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 5, 2004 Report Share Posted December 5, 2004 Friday, I generally take LDN between 9 and 10:30, though I've taken it as late as midnight. Almost a year later, I finally don't have to pee every half-hour. I guess I'm the slow kid in the class... ________________________________________________________________ Juno Gift Certificates Give the gift of Internet access this holiday season. http://www.juno.com/give Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 5, 2004 Report Share Posted December 5, 2004 My son is 16, so being " specific " is outside the realm of his world. Initially, he started out at 9:30 p.m., and did very well with that time. But now, he's driving and he's out on his own alot, and not always home at 9:30 to take it. I'm afraid to send it in the car with him because you know how teens are...I'm afraid someone might find it in his glove box and think they had something other than LDN, and I don't want to be responsible for something like that happening. Also, we tried the billfold thing, but a capsule got crushed so we stopped that. He takes it when he comes in on these nights, his curfew is midnight so it isn't any later than that. No problems at all with doing it this way. He couldn't be doing any better than he is! On a humorous note, I tried text messaging his cell phone to remind him to take it anytime he was away from home, and he promptly threatened to " block " my messages. After having a slight flare up of old symptoms over being without his LDN for 3 days, I no longer have to worry about him forgetting to take it.

Guest guest Posted December 5, 2004 Report Share Posted December 5, 2004 Interesting that you ask Friday Yes I used to be very punctual and every night at ten on the button down it went. Lately though as you say I even forget to take it and go to sleep, then once I woke up at five and quickly gulped down a pill, Now wether it was cause we are now back on mountain standard time or cause I am better adapted to it or even have repaired my self somewhat, I can't say but nothing bad happens anymore when I am late with my pill or even miss one day. Now if I miss two days I start to have urgent bathroom breaks around three p.m.but then again I asked for it.So correct me if I am wrong but...I think there must be some actuall repair (small but noticeable ) going on all the time we are taking LDN.

Guest guest Posted December 5, 2004 Report Share Posted December 5, 2004 hi i usually take my ldn at 10.30pm . but lately am finding my self doing it later. for me it seems no difference when i take it. do you think that not taking it and drinking makes a difference? i want to know cos with all the xmas parties i haven't been drinking but am going to one that i would like to drink at. i have been on ldn only 4 weeks and wondered if i can do this? thanks raelene -- [low dose naltrexone] LDN Time taking specifics Hi Group,Good to see that you are all well from your posts and its all positive .My question is, how many of you take LDN at exactly the same time every evening and how many use to be vigilant with the time, like myself, and have now become complacent and take it any time between the times we are told to?For those who apply to the latter scenario, do you feel your 'recovery' or battle of symtoms and ldn benefits are any less for doing so?For example, I use to take LDN in the beginning at exactly 10:30pm for weeks.

Guest guest Posted December 6, 2004 Report Share Posted December 6, 2004 I think likewise Reg " I think there must be some actuall repair (small but noticeable ) going on all the time we are taking LDN. " I have had this for almost 22 years. I haven`t notice any change before, but now, in last month, clearly something good is happening. I have taken alcohol (get little drunk) time to time, and it hasn´t make any difference to me. I take ldn in those days as I take in every other days. Amount 4,5 mg is so small that it wont´t do any bad symptoms to me, but I think we are individuals with that too. -With best regards to all of you from SantaClaus´s home land -lol@- --- In low dose naltrexone , " Reg Kreil " <regkreil@h...> wrote: > Interesting that you ask Friday > Yes I used to be very punctual and every night at ten on the button down it > went. > Lately though as you say I even forget to take it and go to sleep, then once > I woke up at five and quickly gulped down a pill, Now wether it was cause we > are now back on mountain standard time or cause I am better adapted to it or > even have repaired my self somewhat, I can't say but nothing bad happens > anymore when I am late with my pill or even miss one day. > Now if I miss two days I start to have urgent bathroom breaks around three p > m.but then again I asked for it.So correct me if I am wrong but...I think > there must be some actuall repair (small but noticeable ) going on all the > time we are taking LDN. > Reg. > > -- [low dose naltrexone] LDN Time taking specifics > > > Hi Group, > > Good to see that you are all well from your posts and its all > positive . > > My question is, how many of you take LDN at exactly the same time > every evening and how many use to be vigilant with the time, like > myself, and have now become complacent and take it any time between > the times we are told to? > > For those who apply to the latter scenario, do you feel > your 'recovery' or battle of symtoms and ldn benefits are any less > for doing so? > > For example, I use to take LDN in the beginning at exactly 10:30pm > for weeks. > > I have missed a dose here and there due to forgetfullness or chosing > to because I was having wine/spirits on that particular night. > > Over time, and up to now, I began to take LDN any time after 10pm. > Sometimes 11pm, sometimes 12 or even 12:30am. > > I must admit, in the beginning, my symptom relief was instantaneous > and my energy endless......now? deminishing although not back to my > pre-LDN days thank goodness. > > Any similar experiences? > > Friday > > note: As of tonight, I'm going back to taking ldn at exactly 10pm > and see how /if things change. > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 6, 2004 Report Share Posted December 6, 2004 I would say go for it cause in my case now that thirteen months have passed I no longer can like a drink. Wether I grew up or the LDN is doing it I can,t say but I just don't like booze any more and that is too bad as I just made four gallons of wine that people tell me is quite good, yet to me it is disgusting!
