Re: already having trouble

[Guest guest]

Several of us have noticed a loss of appetite, unfortunately for me mine

settles down as long as I don't change doses. I reduced the dosage for

several days and my appetite was affected when I upped it again.

Can you go to 3.0 and see if that will work for you?

I know what you mean. I'm on day 5 of LDN and my legs are stiffer

than ever. Since they improve later in the day, when the LDN has

dissipated, I suspect the LDN is causing the stiffness. I take 3 mg,

but should probably go down to 1.5. You should possibly try 3 mg. My

question is: how do you know how much to take out of the capsule,

and what do you do with the remainder?
