Hi. I have Sjogren’s disease but I was started on LDN before the neuroblock was placed for my TN. I suffer from different types of neuropathy with this Sjogren’s disease. The explanation that I was given by my pain/anesthesia specialist is that my nerves are in haywire and it will help the neuroblock to work well.
I do still deal with severe pain daily even with the LDN and methotrexate. I think it’s a combination of my Sjogren’s arthritis, severe osteoarthritis, and my hypermobile joints.

@josmio Sorry for your pain and I can truly empathize. I wonder if you have had a bad reaction of any negative side effects ,with your taking methotrexate, since my rheumatologist suggested this med in place of Plaquenil, which gave me severe migraines? The pitfall of most meds are in addition to the so called ' benefits', there is always a negative side effect which varies with each invidual body chemistry.

@josmio
Ldn gave me a boost- it wasnt sustaining...placebo effect maybe???
