That is wonderful feedback and encouragement. Thank you!
I picked up my Rx of LDN today.
Instructions for first month: >1mg/day for week 1; >2mg/day for week 2; >3mg/day week 3; >4mg/day week 4. No more than 4mg/day. Scheduled for a follow-up in a month to assess and adjust.
Do you understand this to be a temporary treatment for long term/permanent improvement or an ongoing treatment to maintain improvement?
I pray for the positive results you've experienced. I will try to remember to update here.

I believe it was intended to be short term (less than 6 months) to get rid of the fatigue caused from LC, however, I feel so much better on it, that I'm fearful to stop taking it! I communicated this with my covid Dr. and he said that it is something that would be safe to stay on long term, as it is used for treating chronic fatigue as well.
There's a correction to the dosage I'm taking from my original reply. I started at 1.5 mg and was increased to taking 2 of the 1.5 mg daily (total of 3/day). My doctor said the lowest dose that I get relief from symptoms is best. So if you get relief at a certain dose, it's interesting that your doctor has you increasing to a total of 4 mg.
I pray you get positive results as well. LC is life altering in so many ways. Hoping by now you are maybe on your way to big improvements.
