Fibromyalgia and LDN dosage.

[Guest guest]

G'day Folks,

I have been taking LDN now for 8 months to treat my Fibromyagia.

I prepare my dosage of 4.5 to 4.8 by grinding a 50mg Revia tablet to

powder, making a line of the powder and dividing it into 10 piles.

The powder includes the caplet " jacket " which is about 5mg.

I then divide the powder into 10 equal piles and place each pile into

an empty capsule. I then have 10 capsules. Allowing for the coating

and minor losses I have 10 capsules within the above tolerance.

The Revia costs AU$170 for 30 and 300 empty capsules cost AU$50. I

get about AU$100 back from my health fund so 300 capsules costs me

AU$120.

I have found I am much improved now in the mornings but pain

increases by mid afternoon and then stabilizes about 7p.m.

The degree of pain depend on physical activity and how well I am

managing my energy " bank account " . If I overdraw I Flair.

I'm somewhere middle ground symptom wise.

Five years ago I was running half-marathons. Now I can slowly walk

about 3klms on level ground most days.

My principal pain area is my back and spine.
