Hi all, nice to find more and more ppl interested in trying LDN. I have been using it since 07. For 5 years non-stop, and without any problem. You mentioned vivid dreams. Yes, 20 % of the beginners...
I want to suggest you to have a look at, and google LDN, Low Dose Naltrexone. A medicine used in small doses to regulate the immune system to do a better job. www.ldnscience.org I am also, as Kazbern...
I don't take any Crohns medicines. I have the same problems. My hair and nails got way better by taking a B-total and magnesium. Every day two B - total vit and one magnesium. Ask for advice re doses....
I wish you the best of luck! I have now been on LDN for more than 5 years, as my only medicine. I only use 3.0 mg / day, taken at night. Have had some small flares, but I managed to stop them by...
I would guess that the cause could be a flare building up. Yellowish stool is often a result of fat food. At least yellow watery diarrhea is. // Bee...
Our intestines are having inflamed spots. All our nutrition is taken up in the intestines. Having inflammation and inflamed spots will lead to difficulties taking up nutrition. We often find that...
I have totally been there. I am now having gluten free meals and am avoiding gluten as much as possible. I am not a gluten allergic, I don't even know if I am gluten sensitive, cause where I live...
The more suntan the more vitamin D, the more vitamin D, the less inflammation. ;-)...
Hi, you could get your flare under control by using the SCD - this diet teaches you how liquid diet the first weeks in (made of chicken broth and some spice (home made of course) will get your flare...
Even though this post is 1 year old, I hope your daughter is continuing doing well. I am now doing my 5th year on LDN and I am doing great on it! :-) //Bee...
There are many people living on really restricted diets, but if you only eat what you've mentioned, then it's one of the most restricted I've seen. There are diets with components out there where you...
Pain right of the belly button could be in the ileal or in the jejuneal area, the small intestines are moving around changing place all day. It's hard to say if it's the appendix making trouble or if...
Angela, take a look at what you're eating / drinking, this problem is almost ALWAYS the result of nutrition. Personally I don't like to put a lot of different medications in my system, so I change my...
Hello, I'm sorry I have been on vacation and haven't seen the last question. If you want to learn more on LDN, Low Dose Naltrexone, you have to do a net search and some education. There is a yahoo...
pmedic: why not use LDN after your knee surgery, LDN is reducing pain a lot. Hope you'll succeed! clonehead: I read that you're using Humira. LDN is often used with Humira too. Phd. dr. Jill Smith at...
I have to add that Wellbutrin actually is a medication for depression, I don't have any depression at all,but I convinced my doctor that I needed to try this medication to figure out if the former...
I refer to this thread and the questions discussed there, a year ago. http://www.healingwell.com/community/default.aspx?f=17&m=1990005 As a few of you know, I am using LDN. Have done that for 5 years...
For many years I used to post in another place about LDN. Two of the users there always disagreed with me and was really negative that LDN could work. They adviced others to stay away from it,...
My Crohns started 8 years ago with obstructions. Diarrhea and all the other typical Crohns symptoms occured after a few years with only obstructions....
I have some kind of bumps too. Have always been wondering what this could be. My bumps are visible and I can feel them under the skin, or a bit deeper than that, and these bumps are increasing in...
Ny-Sooner:I got my diagnose 5 years ago and had back then severe partial obstructions getting obstructional attacks twice or more each month for 2 years. Have been on LDN for 5 years. My GI wanted to...
Have had my gallbladder out, my appendix out, used birth control pills, had my tonsils out and had a lot of antibiotic treatments. Got my renal cell cancer and Crohns diagnose at the same time, 5...
I strongly suggest you to have a look at the database of LDN and cancer treatments too. LDN has done something there for a lot of people having cancers, and many of them have written at the...
Re Panacea: Paradoxically, LDN's ability to benefit so many seemingly unrelated medical conditions has been the greatest criticism from conventional mainstream medicine. If it sounds too good to be...
BabeintheWoods, I would like to add some lines to your question: LDN never promises to be a cure. LDN is blocking some receptors on the cells in the gut (immune cells). This is what they think the...
BabeintheWoods, I am in remission, but I take LDN to continue to keep my immune system at a good and protecting level. They explain that LDN is balancing or restoring the immune cells so that they...
Thank you InSoFla for this great information. I agree with you in all aspects, as I am one of the 100 000 happy LDN users. I have been on LDN since fall 2007, and I am very glad I took that choice...
Going gluten free made a huge different for me. Got increased energy, rid diarrhea and some pain. It's always possible to learn how to make home made breads and buns, if you don't like the ones at...
I have been down that road, too, so it's easy to understand your fears. Try to learn as much as you can on Low Dose Naltrexone. I have used this medicine for 5 years, I have had renal cell cancer...
Bananas, brocolli, onions and many other vegetables, too....
I'd suggest that you may want to visit your doctor and discuss the swollen ankles with him. There is more than one possibility, you could have some hydration problem, this could be a Crohns thing, or...
I am afraid your buns will turn out being overdone if you bake them for 45 minutes. 12 - 15 minutes for buns and 30 minutes for a bread is ok. I am always baking buns myself and I would suggest that...
I feel sorry for your pain, and I don't know why your getting it. I have also got something weird, when drinking water, I can feel the cold water when it reaches my stomac, this is something new,...
moldycheese, I soo echo your choices, I have done great too after replacing bread and pasta with gluten free bread and pastas. I first thought that these choices would give me a tasteless impression...
I have been on LDN for 5 years, and I am having great benefits from it. LDN is my only medicine. I would, as Alan, Crohnsdad, choose both if I could. :-)...
Obstruction pain and the cascade 12 hours vomitting that often follows an obstruction....
Hi LinsayGW, I have, as you Crohns in the jejunum. When I read your last written post, I had to reply to you. Patients having Crohns in jejunum have a different Crohns type, than those having Crohns...
I have a couple of small lumps that are a bit sore to touch, but they are not dissapearing when I lay down. There's no coloured skin and no changes as far as I know, they remain the same all the...
I had terrible heart burn prior to going gluten free. By doing so, I also stopped having cramps in my feet and legs, I stopped having diarrhea, I stopped getting so tired. Prior to going gluten free...
I am only having gluten free products, for more than two months now. My Gerd stopped when I stopped eating bread containing flour with the protein gluten. (Also my diarrhea stopped, my leg and foot...
Every time I have tried something diet wise, I also tend to change other bad habits re nutrition. I have more vegetables, more fruits, seeds and nuts than usual. All this should be considered as a...
I guess you are familiar with the fact that being gluten sensitive can lead to headache. Have you seen the youtube videos by using the search words: gluten free or gluten sensitive? You will find a...
You may want to use this starter; Whole Organic cow's milk with Dannon Natural You could also use a yogurt containing some Lactobacillus bacteria as a starter. If you're sensitive to yogurt you may...
Yes, your doc is right, give it a try! I started a few months ago, I am obviously a slow learner, because I have had a few slips here and there, and have had gluten, the last one was saturday. Had my...
concerned4cancer: if food is coming out undigested you also should rule out Crohns, IBS, U.C. It's very typical having this issue when having any kind of IBD or IBS. tenyang 2012: have you seen the...
Have been researching gluten intolerance and gluten allergy (Celiac disease) a LOT lately. I have found that there are a difference between these two. There are good and safe tests to find out if you...
I went gluten free ab couple of months ago, have tried going gluten free a bit halfheartedly a few times the last years. I am obviously a slow learner, by cheating a few times the last months, I had...
I have Crohns in jejunum and I used to get obstructions twice a month prior to Low Dose Naltrexone. I was heading a surgery 4 years ago, but avoided it thanks to LDN. Still don't need it! Eating...
I guess that there are foods that kill, and there are foods that heal. I am convinced that within 10 years or less, we will find lots of food that everyone with auto immune diseases have to avoid, or...
I agree with Dave, and one more thing, a diet like the SCD or the anti inflammatory diet could be a great help and may never hurt anyone. I changed my diet recently and I am gluten free, this time...
