New possible side effect- I am having hot flashes. Now keep in mind that I am in Arizona and it was 106 here today. I think I was having them some before the LDN but it is hard to say- they have been fairly frequent the last 2 days. Anyone have this??

I think the improved sleep has to be good for the pain in the long run. I don't know if I can deal with it better after a good sleep or if there is an actual decrease.

This may sound odd but I feel like the pain keeps me from over doing my physical activity- I try so hard to stay active but not to push too far. I don't if any one else is like this- it is such a balancing act for me to try and manage this AS. Making myself walk the dog during a flare just so I get moving is equally as difficult as reining in my super women "get it done attitude" when I feel better.

I will take an easing of some symptom with many thanks!
