Hi All
I am thinking about trying LDN. The problem is I am very sensitive to medications of all kinds. The only medication I was ever on for Crohn's was prednisolone, years ago, and it was only for a short while, as I could not tolerate it. Since then I managed the illness through diet.
The other complication is that I have asthma, and some chemicals and medications can trigger severe asthma attacks.
Is there anyone who is taking LDN and has asthma?
I have read some people suffer sleep disturbances/insomnia when on LDN. Is the opposite ever true, i.e. that some people might find they sleep more heavily when taking it? If so, this would concern me greatly, as I often have asthma attacks at night. Fortunately I always awaken easily so I can use my inhaler or nebuliser. But I would not want to take anything that might make me sleep more heavily as it could be potentially dangerous to sleep through the early warning signs of an asthma attack.
The other thing I would like to ask, is whether when people are on LDN they find they can give up their special diets, such as the low residue diet, the SCD diet etc.
Also, I have many food allergies; has anyone found their allergies have greatly improved when on LDN ? If so, why do they think this is?
Many thanx
