Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN).
Hi, Am new to this group and glad to find it. Am wondering if anyone has used Low Dose Naltrexone in connection with their thyroid issues. It is available by prescription but I believe it is only currently available for off-label use. Am interested in how anyone who uses it finds it etc.

Has anyone been feeling better on low dose naltrexone? I've had Hashimotos for a decade and have tried everything.
I've passed on Hashimotos to both of my children. The autoimmune thyroiditis. I finally got on dessicated thyroid and do feel better although that is not correcting my autoimmune disease as I still have antibodies. After my body finishes attacking my thyroid it can be triggered to attack other organs

Help with understanding my results please.
Hi, I've posted before but now I've got my results in. They all say Normal next to them but I'm trying for a baby so I'd like your expert opinions. A quick recap, I've been hypothyroid for 12 years and been on Levothyroxine for all 12. I've recently reduced my dose from 100mg to alternating between

Help! Slow down the progression of CLL
I could really use some advice. I went for my routine three month checkup yesterday. My numbers have increased and the doctors say this is an indicator of progression in my CLL. He wants to see me next month to repeat labs. My ALC doubled, My lymph nodes have increased in size and my LDH has also increased

Low Dose Naltrexone and where to get it?
Hello everyone, I have Hashimoto's, and have recently had a weak positive to celiac. After watching the Thyroid Secret, I would like to get myself on LDN. Can anyone advise me on where to get it? I am in the UK. I have done some research, but found that there are quite a few charges - telephone consultation

Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) - 4th week in!
Jackie has been trying Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) as we have heard of some very good results of this when used for Parkinson's and MS. Unfortunately as had as we have tried we can find no record of anyone trying the drug with MSA. It's not easy as the body treats it as a toxin and so the dose has to

Prostate Cancer & Hormones - Cortisol
Cortisol is known as the stress hormone. Wiki: "It is released in response to stress and low blood-glucose concentration. It functions to increase blood sugar through gluconeogenesis, to suppress the immune system ... It also decreases bone formation." [1] "Diurnal cycles of cortisol levels are found

LDL-C or apoB as the Best Target for Reducing Coronary Heart Disease
LDL
-C is an estimated value and also includes NON-atherogenic particles, therefore it is not the optimal lipid value as a treatment target.
