From what I can find, LDN doesn't interfere with abx. I think I am going to ask my LLMD if I can try it. I know he prescribes it.

It makes sense that a lot of our issues (and most of mine) caused by inflammation. Herxes seem to increase this inflammation. So does it make sense that theoretically, LDN could minimizes Herxes? Has anyone experienced this?

i've tried LDN twice at 2 different doses did nothing for me. some its helped so its really individualized on whether its going to help you so worth a try they aren't expensive.

It could be coincidental, but my cd57nk greatly increased over the last year. I have been taking ldn for 6 most. My joint pain is much better too. I have some knee swelling but even that is improving

Thanks for the info. I haven't heard anything bad about it, other than sleep disruptions. And I've already had that for months.

Well, I tried it - before I knew I had LD.

When I tried it, I was sleeping well...with a lot of pain during the waking hours....

When I started taking the LD, that's when my night time pain started...I started low (I think it was 1.5 mg)...and slowly titrated up..over a few weeks time...can't remember total time I gave it (6 weeks I'm thinking)

and it never got any better...so I stopped.

It may be that it was keeping me out of my deep sleep...so that's why the pain at night started?
