Guest guest Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 Hi everyone, Just want to give an update. Started LDN 1.5mg on May 25th, went to 3mg in June and on to 4.5mg on July 8th. I had pretty vivid dreams at first and some insomnia issues. I started taking 5-htp and melatonin every night with the LDN. The dreams tapered off until I went to 3mg and started up again. Didn't really disrupt my sleep a whole lot. When I went up to 4.5mg the same thing happened for the first few days. Really vivid, strange dreams but they have tapered off again. I still dream every night and still remember all my dreams, which is new for me but it's not an issue. All in all, I'm sleeping better than I have in years and years. I use to go for days with very little sleep.............no more.I still do wake up almost every night around 3am (strange). But I read a bit and usually fall back asleep within an hour or so. When I started on 3mg I noticed some improvement in bladder control and less nerve pain. Since I've gone to 4.5mg I've gotten a bit worse again, leg/arm stiffness, headaches, more pain and I'm cranky. But I'm going to hang in there and hope for some improvement again with time. If I don't feel better within a month or so I may drop back down to 3mg but will only do that as a last resort. I'm getting my walkaide type device in a week or so. That will really help with the foot drop and make walking much easier. Can't wait! All in all the LDN seems to be working........baby steps......... Compared to the shots and sickness from the shots, LDN is like heaven.Take Care,TonetteRRMS since 1996, SPMS since 2007Rocky Mountains, Colorado Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
