Low Dose Naltrexone or LDN is helpful for many conditions and autoimmune regulation

I did give this a try for about a year with no benifit and I just started low dose opioid treatment for pain management unfortunately 😞

Oh gosh, this is a huge burden and cross. Just mind your digestive system with those meds, in fact, Id go supository route which may be more efficacious ×

I'm too scared you go bum route 😆 but I do here it's better efficacious I just don't know if 5mg that way will be too much

Dont take oral medication that way, you will require it on suppository form. So easy to administer....... but if youre going oral route ask about 'palexia' slow release . Its a life changer.

I was put on an SSRI called Fluvoxamine under some duress late last year for what was fibromyalgia pain in spasms in my lower back, hands and feet; and TMJ; and a heap of terror type energy and sweating coursing through my body mostly at night making life like some torture joke. To my surprise the meds helped well beyond my expectations. I got diagnosed with FND 3 months ago. I feel the meds continue to make life somewhat easier considering the plethora of FND experiences I deal with daily. Seizures come with very high blood pressure for me so Perindopril sorts that out. That’s it for me

Maybe I'll try another Antidepressant Cymbalta just isn't helping at all
