Has anyone been prescribed low dose naltrexone (LDN) in the UK?
Hello fellow warriors, I've been reading up on LDN and heard some positive reviews aswell as current clinical trials for fibromyalgia. I was wondering if anyone has managed to get a GP or private consultant to prescrible it off label? If so what are your thoughts or experiences ? Thank you

Switch from Seretide to Fostair 100/6
Have other people had problems when switching from Seretide (which was very successful for me) to Fostair 100/6. I am finding it less effective and peak flow has fallen by about 20%

Naltrexone : for chronic inflammation, Hashimotos, etc
Low dose Naltrexone was introduced to me by one of the wisest ladies I know. Bolt, it is my hope sharing this will be a small way of reciprocating the things you have introduced to me. I think it will be of interest to you. Or maybe you already take it? I haven’t had time to read today but am posting

Carbs and thyroid
sorry, none of you seem to have understood my question. I am not talking about low carb diets at all. I am asking if a high carb diet will cure an underactive thyroid in a person who is not on medicatrion. If so, where is the research and evidence and why don't endos, GPs etc. suggest adding extra

Primary Hyperparathyroidism
I was diagnosed with osteoporosis whilst being investigated for hypercalcemia. Turns out I had a tumour on my parathyroid gland - primary hyperparathyroidism. I was told this caused my osteoporosis because the parathyroid glands control the calcium in our bodies. Mine was out of control and leaking calcium

Shortness of Breath
I had pneumonia in October 2021, and since then I've noticed I've had a real problem with chest tightness and shortness of breath. It's usually when I am talking/walking. It comes and goes usually based on reliever inhaler use. My reliever inhaler is usually working for for good few hours but then the

Dr Bredesens Protocol for MSA and LDN
Hi, My father has recently been diagnosed with MSA. I have been looking for therapies or treatments that may be beneficial for him and was wondering if anyone has tried following Dr Bredesens protocol or a ketogenic diet? Also, does anyone have any experience using Low dose Naltrexone for MSA symptoms

Well after all does weight really matter
Have just come off my first (and last ) cruise and I was staggered at the amount of people who were not just overweight but obese . Having carefully watched my weight for years and low fat diet plus plenty of exercise it didn’t stop me needing a bypass at 76 . So what am I missing I keep asking myself

Covid
I have been really careful and managed not to get COVID until yesterday. I have a dreadful cold like symptoms all in my head, I have asthma but normally no wheeze. Since my symptoms have started I am wheezing now. I use Fostair and blue reliever. I haven't done a peak flow check yet, but I will start

Shortness of breath/breathing issues PV
Hi everyone. I am waiting on more tests to confirm Polycythemia Vera. I see from all my research a symptom is breathing issues. Over 20 years ago I was diagnosed with asthma and use preventative and Ventolin. I have always felt this is not asthma, peak flow is perfect and know what asthma looks like

Carb cravings and - Muffins!
Just a short one. One of the problems with transitioning to a largely low carb high fat lifestyle is the inevitable craving for bread, potatoes, rice and pasta. When I was a child it was only bread and potatoes - pasta was largely unknown, and rice was a pudding. Anyway, many, many low carb recipes

This is the third cough/ virus/ infection since November and they have knocked me for 6. Any advice?
Hi there. I am new to the site and consider myself to be healthy, but unlucky when it comes to illness. I was asthmatic as a child, spending time in hospital when I was very young, which was horrid. Anyway, over time asthma seemed to disappear and I went without use or need of an inhaler from my 20s

Low Protein Diet
I'm starting a low protein diet and allowed 46 grams a day. I have a few questions: (1) does this allowance involve both plant and animal protein; (2] if it involves plant protein, does the plant protein have to be "complete " proteins or just any proteins; (3) if I only eat 30 grams on a day, can
