Re: Re: Starting LDN - side effects - what to do?

[Guest guest]

yeah, seems to be a common thing to be reported after starting LDN. I wonder, IS it a UTI, is there UTI bacteria there, or just assumed? if it's really a UTI, that's strange.. but if it only looks like UTI, then untreated it should go away on its own, just with LDN. But it does seem to be something following the start of LDN for some people. Not a lot, but I see a lot of people saying just what you did... Never Had a UTI. Did the doc test for bacteria or just go by reported symptoms of one?

if it's bacterial for sure, then the LDN will help the antibiotics kill it. if it's not really bacterial, the LDN would do it all on it's own.

JMHO OC YMMV HAND

Thank you all for your responses. It looks like I have a UTI and have started antibiotics this evening. I have never had UTI, so not sure if this was brought on by LDN or unrelated. Will contact Dr. Skip tomorrow, but for now I will continue with 3mg and see what happens. Thanks again and please let me know if you have any further advice.>> Nausea has been associated with the capsule filler, avicel, in a small> percentage of users.> > may wish to add her experience on this.> > You could request and try a different filler,> kind regards,> Cris> > 11a.
