Info on LDN - search for low dose naltrexone.org

That will take you to the web site with Dr. Bihari's info. I just responded to someone else with a list of doc's who prescribe LDN; watch your group email for it. Skip's Pharmacy price for a 30 day supply, with shipping, is about $16. I assume insurance would cover, but my insurance copay for it would be more than its cost, so its a moot point for me.

Hi I am new to this list and just recently diagnosed with RRMS.I went to see my family Dr. today to see what type of info he had to add to Neurologists suggestions etc. I mentioned LDN to him and he said he had never heard of it and could I get some info on it to him to take a look at. He is a VERY open minded kind of guy. I am wondering what/where the best info is that I could present to him?Also, I am wondering how expensive LDN is and if Insurance ever covers it since it is not an FDA approved drug? Also, if any of you know of a Dr. in the New England area who prescribes LDN and could give that info. to me I would really appreciate that.Thank you!Colleen

Low dose Naltrexone is not FDA approved yet Naltrexone (Revia) for us Canuks

is for alcoholics so therefore Blue Cross covers it in Alberta!

Regardless whats twenty five bucks a month?

Colleen - I'm sure the others will tell you the best place to get info. LDN is not expensive at all. I think the druggist told me it was $38/mo but my insurance covers all but a co-pay of $5. Well worth it even if I had to pay the $38. Kim

As low as you were your Dr. if he was up on low testosterone he should have

treated you. I can't tell you how bad it is for your body and mind to be low

like this. It will shorten your life not treating this. Go to

www.allthingsmale.com and read TRT: A Recipe for Success in this are labs you

need and why also read the FAQ's about what low T will do to you over the long

hall.

To get your sex life, Energy and libido back you need to get your Testosterone

levels up into the upper 1/3 of your labs range and to test your Estradiol

levels down to about 20 doing this you will get your wood back no more ED and

being on TRT will stop your testis from making testosterone so most of us take

HCG this acts like the LH message from your brain to your testis so they keep

working. You penis might look small when soft if your levels are not balanced

right but it will not stay like this as you get leveled off it comes back and

hangs normal.
