Thanks Ingrid for starting this Group!!!
Dear Old and new Listmates,
A New Yahoo group for those with IBD and IBS (Crohns, U.C, Ulcerative Colitis, Microscopic Colitis, IBS) is born

I have been nothing less than amazed for two years! I started using LDN for my Crohns in Sept. 2007. My most significant changes are: All pain and bloating dissapeared within one single night, I woke up full of energy and had NO PAIN at all the very next morning after I took my first 3 mg of Low Dose Naltrexone. The diarrhea took a couple of weeks before it gradually improved. My severe anemia was back to normal within some months (iron supplements didn't help me much). But the best results was that since the inflammation reduced, my narrowing got away, and therefore the partial obstructions, which I used to have a couple of times every month at least 1 year prior LDN, dissapeared. I was on prednisone for 3 months prior LDN, my Gastroenterolog would try 3 months to see if that was enough, but no, it wasn't. When I tapered off of prednisone the inflammation came back. At that point I decided to give LDN a try.. I never regret that I made up my mind to do so.
LDN is such a fantastic medicine. It may give you some small side effects in the beginning, may be the first week or two. Those side effects are minor, it's often vivid dreams (funny or not so funny dreams), it could problems falling asleep, it could be waking up in the middle of the night feeling wide awake. You may toss and turn for some nights, but then - it's often over. Some people also get some rashes and other again some red and warm skin. All those side effects dissapears, and if you feel you need to discuss LDN and side effects, or feel afraid to start, write in and get some support here. I will add a list of the typical side effects and what you can do. I'll also add a trouble shooting list if LDN doesn't work the way you wanted. Because this happens. We may have a solution for you. The Files section on the left side here will show you USEFUL FILES.
Good luck to all IBD'ers and IBS'ers! :-)
