Guest guest Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Hi everyone, just want to report some positive progress. I'm someone with CREST syndrome, a variant of systemic scleroderma. I've been on LDN for about 3 months now. The first month dosage was 1.5, and I felt better than I had in years. The second month I went up to 3.0, but I was still on 50 mg synthroid and I had a very bad reaction, which lasted weeks. I stopped the synthroid altogether and went back to 1.5 This is the third month, and I'm still at 1.5 and the synthroid is, I think, out of my system. The results are dramatic: Before LDN an average week was 2 OK days, 3 bad days, 2 shockingly bad days. I would be in bed most of the time. I was taking 60mg Kapidex daily and it still wasn't working well, nor were any other PPIs. Now, as long as I follow an alkaline diet and stick to the lifestyle recommendations, I don't usually HAVE bad days. I'm down to 30 mg. of Prevacid. I'm starting to get my life back again, and doing my art, which I haven't really touched for the past 6 years (I was diagnosed in 2001, and have gotten progressively worse until LDN). I could have more energy, but all in all things are MUCH better. Now--should I go up to 3.0? I'm a small woman, 5'2 " and 113 lbs., with a low tolerance for everything. Thanks in advance for your advice, and good luck to you all-hope you have the same good results. Best wishes, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
