Guest guest Posted March 22, 2004 Report Share Posted March 22, 2004 Marie, I have been taking 3.0 one night and 4.5 the next for the past week. I started doing this just to see if I could see any difference. I have had more good day. They don't seem to fluctuate so much. I am journaling my results and hope to soon be able to tell whether or not the lower dose is more beneficial than the higher. I'll keep you posted!

(Marie Deady) Reply-to: low dose naltrexone low dose naltrexone , mswatchers (MSWatchers) CC: low dose naltrexone (LDN group), Spotlight_ldn (Spotlight_LDN) I have been on 4.5 mg for a long time. Last week I wasn't up to par. Nothing to do with LDN. So last week I went down to about 3.5mg. I didn't feel any different. Last night I went back to 4.5mg. I feel so great today. So much energy. I wonder if it is a good idea to go back and forth with the doseage. Does anyone have any ideas on this.

Guest guest Posted March 22, 2004 Report Share Posted March 22, 2004 Dear Larry, I am so Happy that you were able to RUN again! That is WONDERFUL! I hope the tinkering with the dose of LDN also helps! Love, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 22, 2004 Report Share Posted March 22, 2004 I've been on 4.5mg LDN for over 2 months. I noticed an improvement in bladder function within 24 hours but I haven't seen any other benefits. I continue to take it because I don't think it is hurting me and it could be stopping the progress of MS. I have been fighting fatigue since I started LDN. I don't know if that bothers me or not because it forces me to sleep and I don't have MS in my dreams so I love sleeping. I don't know whether to continue taking 4.5mg or switch to 3.0. Any advice?

Guest guest Posted March 22, 2004 Report Share Posted March 22, 2004 MARIE I'VE BEEN TAKING 4.5 SINCE NOVEMBER. I WAS FEELING NOT UP TO PAR FOR A WHILE AND, AFTER READING THE POSTS IN THIS GROUP, I DECIDED TO TRY 3.0 AGAIN FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS. I FELT WORSE BUT HELD OUT. LAST NITE I TOOK 4.5 AGAIN AND TODAY I FEEL GREAT! I'VE HEARD OF LDN WORKING BOTH WAYS. I THINK IT'S JUST ACCORDING TO YOUR BODY HOW MUCH YOU SHOULD TAKE.
