Guest guest Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 Hi, I have been using LDN for more than 1 year now for my Crohns. Untill recently I have had this exhausted feeling, have in periods had the need for more than one nap per day, often one around lunch time and one after dinner. I have also been sleeping 8-12 hours at night. Crohns is a disease that brings a lot of fatique. Partly because we often are lacking both important vitamins and minerals, and partly because our blood values are shifting from normal to severe low. I have loved to excersise, but couldn't do it untill I started some weeks ago, so now LDN is helping me even more. LDN didn't bring me in 100 % remission, but I was so lucky I got great improvements. If I have been in remission I would have known that, so that's why I have tried to find out what else I could do to help LDN to work even better. Home made SCD yoghurt really is a big benefit! READ MORE: www.scdinfo.org or order the yogurt maker: www.lucyskitchenshop.com This yogurt is different. It contains the right probiotic bacterias, those are verified to be working with the intestinal milieu, strengthening it so that the bad guys are getting resistance. The strict diet could be the SCD diet: www.scdiet.org She could also use no gluten (flour and other), no sugar, no dairy, no soy as of Dr. McCandless. She could try the transdermal LDN cream. It bypasses the stomach, so it would not make any irritations on the sensitive intestinal linings. I could send you documents of saved posts about Crohns/IBD and posts written by Dr. McCandless so you could learn how to handle eventual yeast problems/bacteria problems that stops LDN to work in a proper way. Just tell me.Ingrid From: sparketa <sparketa@...>low dose naltrexone Sent: Tuesday, January 27, 2009 9:50:06 PMSubject: [low dose naltrexone] Re: DAUGHTER HAS CROHNS USED LDN DID NOT WORK SOMETHING WRONG>> Cabbie,>> Can you send me a private e-mail.

She also needs to do an anti-candida yeast program for a good 8 months. Steroids can cause yeast overgrowth. If she has yeast LDN will likely perform very poorly for her and she may experience negative symptoms on LDN if she has yeast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 hi i felt very tired and fluish and got migraines on ldn. it help help the arthritis though so have been seeking a way to take it. recently someone post info from dr. McC re gluten casein and soy in diet acting as opiates and therefore when one takes ldn one feel sick as they woudl if they took an narcotic on ldn. ie removed those from my diet and will try ldn again in a few weeks. monique Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 Other reasons have been found for LDN not seeming to work. Mis- diagnosis, some people have found they have lyme disease instead of MS, RA, CFS, Fibromyalgia, Lupus, ALS, etc. Dr. McCandless in her work with LDN has seen LDN many times activate latent viruses and or activate an underlying candida yeast. The viruses and candida yeast must be dealt with or you will continue to feel awful. > > hi i felt very tired and fluish and got migraines on ldn. it help help > the arthritis though so have been seeking a way to take it. recently > someone post info from dr.

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 It should be known that LDN does not necessarily affect any symptoms (not supposed to or expected to) It may not even prevent or delay exacerbations in MS. To say that it doesn't work is IMPOSSIBLE to determine (especially because we don't even know for sure what "to work" means. For me it is relatively cheap (under $65 for 90 daily (4.5mg capsules). If you take it and it "cures" or "holds off flare ups" fine but you and your doctor should know there is no FDA evidence ('cept maybe for Chrones disease) to support LDN's use). There is lots of "anecdotal" evidence to support its use for MS but to say it "did not work" should not be a surprise. Larry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
