Guest guest Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 You ordered the right item and lots of us have ordered from ADC. Probably 2-3 weeks.SterlingFrom: jackduv@... <jackduv@...>Subject: [low dose naltrexone] ldnlow dose naltrexone Date: Monday, March 21, 2011, 11:42 AM I just placed an order for first time @ alldaychemist.com. I ordered. Naltima 50mg. It said was US for revia. I don't know if this is right one- no other choices were offered. I have read NOT to get time release. How will I know if it is or not. Am happy I at least took a first step- Now wondering how long until they arrive. Thanks. Jackduv Sent via BlackBerry by AT & T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 I’m just starting with LDN and ordered from All Day Chemist. I suggest you be as patient as possible. The first shipment was detained by customs on the ridiculous ground that it is a narcotic. All Day Chemist sent another shipment to me free of charge and it reached me on March 16. I live in Pennsylvania and received the package two days after it cleared customs. The whole process took about a month, including the detained shipment. Most shipments are not detained, I’m told. One person here reported getting the drug in ten days. So that should give you some idea of a best case/worst case range. I have an ulcerated colon. I keep a detailed journal. My current episode has lasted nearly a year with trips to the bathroom as often as 14 times per day or less than two hours apart on average. Throughout this period I’ve been taking two 400 mg Asacol tablets twice a day. Some months ago I started the Select Carbohydrate Diet and adhere to it (almost) fanatically. This was responsible for decreasing the frequency of bathroom visits to about once every three hours. I also credit the diet with preventing a worsening of my condition, as so many of you have experienced and reported here. LDN immediately changed the frequency pattern. In the short time I’ve been taking it, the frequency of bathroom visits has dropped to once every 5.66 hours. I have gone as long as 13 hours without a trip to the bathroom which NEVER happened before LDN. Frequency continues to drop. In short, I feel like I just got outta jail: a huge change in life style. I started with 3 mg. for the first four days and experienced no noticeable side effects and have bumped it up to 4.5 mg per night at 10 pm. There is more to this disease than the frequency of bathroom visits, of course. Healing will take longer. But the early results are more than I dared hope for. Eventually, I’m going to die of something. In the meantime, I can hope for an active and fulfilling life style. So far, LDN is giving that back to me. My best wishes to you and all who share their experience, strength and hope here. Nixon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 You can take them together, but most of us find that the Copaxone is unnecessary after a while. It is supposed to lower the number of exacerbations in 32% of the people taking it. The other 68%, like me, got nothing but thousands of dollars a month, and a daily shot to show for its use. The LDN promises to stop the progression of the MS and since I have not had an exacerbation since starting it May 1, 2009, I will leave the Copaxone to the people who have not yet found LDN :-) Hope this helps, Francie http://LDN-for-MS.com > > Is there anyone else out there with MS who is taking LDN and Copaxone? My wife and I weren't sure if you can mix the two. So when she started the LDN we stopped the Copaxone. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Success stories, like yours, makes me smile and I am so happy for you. Your last sentence " people who have not yet found LDN :-)" reminds me of the many people that I have told about LDN who have just shrugged it off. I am sure that some of them would benefit but....StirlingFrom: FrancieS <francie@...>Subject: [low dose naltrexone] Re: LDNlow dose naltrexone Date: Monday, April 4, 2011, 8:03 PM You can take them together, but most of us find that the Copaxone is unnecessary after a while.

I live in Australia and this is a prescription medication here, and it is not on the NHS, for 30 tabs, I was paying about au$115, and my pharmacist was selling it to me at the wholesale price. This stuff is good to keep you MENTALLY awake, but if you are physically tired, it does not benefit you, except that you can use greater force of will to keep yourself moving, because you are not mentally tired. Although it does not mention it in the list of side effects, I found it caused me to gain weight very easily, like 3 lbs in one day, 7 lbs over a week, but, from other people who I have spoken to, none had this side effect, so it may well be that it is just that I have neurological damage that reacted to the modifinil, or maybe the filler, and caused the weight gain. That was the last time I was prepared to take it, so I do not know what it is like to use long term. It did not keep me awake at night, and the feeling of not being tired was wonderful.
